At this time of year, with all sorts of fruits and berries getting ripe, it's nice to have a recipe that works for any fruit you have on hand. There's hardly any prep at all to this recipe, and it seems to work just as well with canned fruits (drained of excess juice) and berries, as with fresh fruits or berries. This is one recipe I keep on hand for when I want to make a quick and tasty dessert or treat. I personally like it warm and served with a scoop of ice cream.
In a mixing bowl, put these ingredients together and mix well:
3/4 cup milk
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons melted butter (or stick margarine, not the tub kind)
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
Grease your pan. Put any fruit, or berries into the bottom of the pan. (If using berries, mix them with some sugar first and let them sit for a while to get a little more juicy before pouring batter over top.) Pour the your batter mix over top and even it out with a spatula if needed.
Bake in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 30 to 45 minutes.
*note: I did not put a pan size. I've done this same recipe in an 8 X 8 inch square pan, a 9 X 9 square, a round pan, and an oblong pan. They all turned out just fine, although the oblong produced a somewhat thinner version, it was still good. The only thing you would need to change would be the baking time as it might take a little more time. When it's done, the top will be lightly browned, and if you test it by the toothpick in the center method, you can be sure when it's done.
