2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1 egg, beaten

Preparation

The abundance of fresh summer fruit provides the opportunity for varying this Fresh Nectarine Cobbler. Because nectarines are fuzz- free, they need not be peeled for this dish. Just slice and blend with nutmeg, lemon juice and rind before scattering over the batter. The cobbler is best when served the day it is made. Preparation time: 25 minutes. Baking time: about 45 minutes. Oven temperature: 375 degrees.

TIPS: Use boysenberries, sliced peaches or apricots in place of the nectarines, if you wish. Frozen fruit or berries can be substituted if fresh is not available.
