 Mango Cobbler
INGREDIENTS   DIRECTIONS
4 large, whole mango's   Fruit:
Skin and cut mango's into pieces 1/2 - 1 inch in size. Place in mixing bowl.
Toss fruit in lemon juice and white sugar to taste. Pile into 9 inch pie pan.
Juice of 2 lemons
1/2 cup white sugar
1 cup all purpose flour  
1 stick cold, unsalted butter   Topping:
1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed  

Put flour, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl.
Cut butter into pieces, then add to dry mixture.
Rub together with fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal.
The butter should NOT be totally incorporated (there should still be tiny chunks of it).
Sprinke mixture on top of fruit and spread out evenly

Pinch of salt  
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon  
   
   
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
     
    Bake for 45 minutes, or until fruit bubbles up at corners and top is brown.
     
NOTE: Put tinfoil on the rack underneath the pie dish in the oven to catch drippings as fruit will bubble up and dribble over the side. Serve with whipped cream, ice cream, vanilla ice cream. Extra goodies for topping: Framboise, confectionery sugar sprinkling.

Prep time: 1 hour 15 minutes. (includes cutting fruit, which takes the longest)
Cooking time: 45 minutes

Substitute 4 cups of peaches for mangos, or that quantity of your favorite fruit.
