Hillbilly Pie


  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 & 1/2 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 & 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups blackberries or other fresh fruit

Melt butter in a 9X13 pan.  Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.  Add milk and stir until well moistened.  Spread in pan.  Spoon fruit over batter.  Do not stir.  Bake in a 350 degree preheated oven for 45 minutes; for a glass pan at 325 degrees for 45 minutes. 

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

This recipe is really easy.  I like recipes where you can switch ingredients and use what is in season.  Frozen fruit is OK to use too.
