Dessert Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fruit

    Wash and chop the fresh seasonal fruit into bite-sized pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine the fruit with 1 tablespoon of sugar. Set aside to macerate for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon (if using). In another bowl, mix the milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of sugar until combined. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

  3. 3

    Combine and Bake

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish with butter. Pour the batter into the dish, then distribute the macerated fruit evenly over the top. Sprinkle with the additional 2 tablespoons of sugar.

  4. 4

    Bake the Dessert

    Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Allow the dessert to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature, optionally topped with whipped cream or ice cream.
