This recipe is lifted straight from my time at Zingerman’s Deli. It is quick and easy and basically foolproof as long as you don’t forget the baking powder– as I have done on several occasions. Use any fruit that is available: cherries, peaches, blueberries, raspberries and on and on and on. This recipe also scales up beautifully so if you need to make 4 hotel pans of cobbler, this dish is your friend.
