Recipe

This is a recipe Bill's grandmother brought with her when she came
to the US from Ireland in the 1920's. It is probably much older
than that. It's a simple thing but does really taste good. It
works with any fruit, but she usually made them with either apples
or peaches. There's some debate over whether it can properly be
called a cobbler, but she always called it that. Nothing fancy,
just old-fashioned goodness.
