I LOVE to bake Fruit Betties! Any of you ever watch the show
King of the Hill and hear Peggy brag about her "brown Betty"? Betties are a strange cross between a cobbler and a pie. They are slices of fresh fruit baked with a streusel topping.
They are super easy to make, you can use any fruit in the world, and the ingredients are super cheap! Just chop up your fruit, toss everything into a baking dish or pie pan, top with streusel, and bake for 40 min or until your house smells yummy. It also has the bonus of looking fancy or complex so it makes a perfect desert to take to a formal gathering or potluck dinner plus there's no need to slice and portion like a pie, just scoop what you want with a spoon!
