Fruit Cobbler - Bonnie Harris and Polly Colle
Great summer or spring dessert with whatever fruit is in season! - peaches, berries, apples. When I was little, we always went to my Grandmother Annie Martin's house for a Mother's Day family reunion. The cousins and I would go blackberry-picking in the woods by her house, bringing her buckets of berries! She made some fantastic cobblers and pies with those blackberries. I don't have Grandmother's recipe, but this is the Colle family version.
