Fruit cobbler

I did this with fresh sweet cherries. It was fabulous!

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Fruit Mixture

3 cups fruit (peaches, sweet cherries, nectarines, plums, raspberries)
1 tablespoon tapioca
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, optional
1/2 lemon juiced and zested
1/4-1/2 cup sugar depending on sweetness of fruit

Pour the fruit into a 9 inch cake pam

Topping

1 egg
1/3 cup plus 4 tablespoons milk
4 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Zest of half a lemon

In a medium bowl, whisk the butter, milk, and egg together.  Add the sugar and vanilla and stir. 

Combine the dry ingredients and add them to the liquid mixture.   Stir until just combined. 

Spoon batter over the fruit mixture so that the fruit is covered. 

Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the top is a golden brown.
