This recipe is great in its simplicity; the batter is sweet, spongey & cake-like - you should only just cover the fruit with a thin layer of batter or else it'll take a very long time to bake. This is what happened with me - I used a 9" round pan and ended up baking for an hour instead of 30 min because the batter was still runny/raw. It probably would've been fine if I'd used a 13"x9" dish instead, so everything was spread out. I used frozen peaches, plums, and strawberries - it turned out very sweet. Maybe a more contrasting array of fruits would be better for next time, to cut the sweetness. It's a nice recipe for something to do with an abundance of overripe fruit.

Very good. Only had Peaches, Pears, Apple and Frozen blueberries on hand. Used higher percentage of peaches. Added a little cinnamon and sugar to fruit and a little cinnamon to topping and turned out awesome. Tastes great warm.

Great recipe! I added about 1/4 cup of quick oats to the topping - still came out great.

I made this recipe with 4 cups of fresh pears and it was awesome! I make it for company and serve it with ice cream. My husband likes it covered in milk for breakfast.

Yum! I've made this a few times and love it! Besides for being easy and good, even without any modifications, it's a lo-cal dessert. This time, I used 1/2 splenda and 1/2 sugar and didn't taste a difference. I used mostly peaches with a few frozen blueberries thrown in. It will definitely become a regular.

i'm 18, and am a budding baker! i must say that this recipe is not only easy to make but also incredibly delicious when eaten warm! i find that sprinkling sugar and a bit of cinnamon onto the fruit before adding the dough doesn't hurt. oh, and instead of peaches i used apples and mangoes, which was quite refreshing given their contrasting flavors:)

Excellent! I used two pears and an apple and added a tsp. of cinnamon and a quarter tsp. of nutmeg. I had to cook it for an extra fifteen minutes, but it turned out wonderfully!

Very nice treat with our fresh pears. Added some blueberries and it was delish. Next time I will use less sugar, though. Just too sweet with the fruit chosen. I should have known better. I suspected...

Good cobbler, a little cake-like as others said but still delicious. Needs cinnamon and nutmeg, though. I used all apples and a splash of cider. I really like that it only calls for 2T of butter, making a fairly healthy and tasty dessert ... or breakfast.

I didn't especially care for this recipe. It was VERY cake-like and not "bubbling" as the author stated.

A good cakey cobbler recipe. I personnally prefer the creamier kind but it didn't keep me from enjoying this one! Made it with apricots and plums, which gave a very tart result. Will make this again with peaches, apples or mangoes.

Quite good. The cruste was nice and golden, and not too sweet. It complimented the fruit nicely. Thought there was just a tad bit too much though, the crust fruit ratio was off. I added some cinamon to my fruit, and it was awesome. Suggest doing that to add a little more flavour.

I really like this recipe. It is easy to prepare. I have used combinations of fresh peaches, strawberries, raspberries, and cherries. Skim milk and Egg Beaters work fine. I have always had to cook it longer than 30 minutes though. For me, it has been closer to an hour. I like to take it out when it is golden brown and then let it sit for 5-10 minutes so the fruit juices solidify just a bit. No matter what though, this has always been a big hit when I make it.

Simple and very good. I used just blueberriesm with the extra vanilla, a smidge more sugar and cinnamin and nutmeg added to the mix and it came out great...I understand why you should never use more than a quart of berries.....VERY VERY BERRY, as there is little cake. A definite keeper. Will certainly make again with different fruits.
