Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Fresh fruit (such as peaches, berries, or apples)
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 cups Butter (unsalted, melted)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (optional, for topping)
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish lightly with butter or non-stick spray.
Wash and dry the fresh fruit. If using large fruits like peaches or apples, peel and slice them into bite-sized pieces. If using berries, leave them whole.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, toss the fruit with 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar. Set aside to let the fruit release its juices.
In another mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the milk and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined to form a smooth batter.
Pour the melted butter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly to coat the bottom.
Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir.
Spoon the sugared fruit and any released juices evenly over the batter. Do not mix; the batter will rise around the fruit as it bakes.
If desired, sprinkle the top with ground cinnamon and brown sugar for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
