Ingredients

1 lime
4 cups blackberries
3 cups sliced peaches
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup water
1 cup self-rising flour
3 tablespoons butter
2 egg yolks
1/3 cup nonfat milk powder
Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream


Directions

Grate the zest and squeeze the juice of the lime; set zest aside. Combine juice, berries, peaches, 1/2 cup sugar, cinnamon and water in a heavy 10- or 12-inch skillet. Cook over medium heat about 5 minutes or until the fruit is soft and heated through.

Combine flour, remaining sugar and zest in a medium bowl. Cut in butter; add egg yolks and milk and stir until blended. Do not overmix.

Bring fruit mixture to a light boil; drop batter by rounded tablespoons onto the boiling fruit, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the sides of the pan. Tightly cover the pan. Reduce heat to low and simmer 18-20 minutes. Remove pan from heat. Remove lid and cool the slump for 5 minutes. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Makes 6 servings.
