Peach Cobbler (Grandma Gladys' recipe)

Peel and slice 3-1/2 Cups Fresh Peaches (more if you like a lot of fruit)

Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter in 8" square pan in 375 degree oven

Mix together: 3/4 C. Sugar, 1 C. Flour, 2 teaspoons Baking Powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, sprinkle of nutmeg, and 3/4 C. Milk - Spoon these ingredients over melted butter-Do Not Stir ( I use an ice cream scoop to plop it on)

Gently spoon peaches and juice on top of the above-Do Not Stir

Top with 1/2 C. firmly packed brown sugar, and sprinkle with cinnamon

Bake about 40 min. - 60 min. at 350 degrees (I do 375 degrees because I think my oven cooks slow). Bake until well browned and fruit is soft. Can serve hot out of the oven or cooled

 (There are no eggs in this)

Any type of fruit could be substituted for the peaches
