Recipe Thursday!(Peach and Blueberry Cobbler)

There is nothing better in the summer than any kind of fruit cobbler. Hands down one of my top five favourite desserts of all time! This past Sunday night I had my oldest friend and her Mom over for dinner, and this seemed like the perfect thing to have for dessert as you can prepare it before hand and it takes a while to cook, so you are not stuck in the kitchen too much while you have guests! This recipe may look super simple, but having tried lots of recipes I truly think it is the BEST!
Easy Fruit Cobbler
Ingredients:
1 Cup Self Rising Flour(if you live in NYC where the don't have self rising flour you can make some by adding baking powder and salt!)
3/4 cups white sugar
3/4 cup milk
1 stick butter
2 cups fresh fruit(My fav combination is peaches and blueberries)

Directions:
-Pour melted butter into the bottom of baking dish(9x9 works well)
-combine flour, sugar, and milk
-pour mixture over melted butter
-toss fruit with several tablespoons of sugar and pour over mixture-use spoon to push fruit down into mixture- it does not need to be fully submerged-just spread equally across dish
-Bake @ 350 for about 1 hour or until top of crust is golden brown



This is quick, simple and easy! The final product is absolutely divine, and next to a scoop of vanilla ice cream is a sweet taste of home! While this may sound awful and wrong, in the winter when these type of fruits are not in season you can make this with frozen fruit and it is ALMOST as good as the real stuff! This is one of the those recipes that you find yourself wanting to use year round! So before time runs out, run to your local produce stand or farmers market and grab some peaches, blueberries or blackberries and enjoy- hard to believe summer is almost over!
