Fruit Cobbler

I've always loved my mom's peach cobbler, but this one is better. ;) (Don't tell her I said that.)  It's a variation of The Food Nanny's recipe, and it's the best I've had. :) Enjoy! Serves 4 to 10 people, depending on size pan you use*.

Fruit Cobbler

6 Tbsp butter, cut up
1 c flour
3/4 c sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp baking powder
3/4 c milk
3 to 4 c fresh or canned fruit, drained
1/2 c firmly packed brown sugar

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Melt butter in square baking dish* in oven. Once butter is melted, remove from oven and set aside.
3. In medium bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and baking powder. Stir in milk. Gently and evenly pour mixture into dish over melted butter. Do not stir.
4. Place fruit evenly over the batter. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over top. Bake until cobbler is well-browned and raw fruit is cooked, if applicable. Start checking at 40 minutes. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

*If you want to make a larger portion, melt 1/2 c (1 cube) butter in 9x13 baking dish; use 1 1/2 c flour, 1 1/4 c sugar, 2 tsp cinnamon, 3 tsp baking powder, 1 1/4 c milk, 6 c fruit, and 1 c packed brown sugar. Start checking doneness at 45 minutes.
