This isn't the tastiest cobbler I've had, but it was definitely the easiest! It was unbelievable how fast and easy this was. This recipe does create a nice crust on top and around the edges, but I think it was more like a bread pudding w/ large chunks of fruit than a true cobbler. While mine did not turn out greasy, I do think the butter can be halved. I made mine to fit a ceramic oval dish that's approx 9x13, so I sort of doubled the recipe to fit the dish. I had at least 4 cups of freshly picked organic nectarines from my friend's garden, and I literally eyeballed the batter to fit b/c I wanted more fruit than batter. I used whole wheat flour which usually requires more liquid than all-purpose flour, and it gave the cobbler a nutty taste which I really enjoyed. Otherwise I think the batter might have needed more spice since it's really only flavored with butter and sugar. Firm nectarines that are still tart are the best to use for baking, in my opinion. They turn out perfectly sweet, tender, and flavorful. Ripe nectarines tend to get way too soggy and syrupy sweet after baking, for my taste at least.
