Perfect Summer Fruit Cobbler

Submitted by pies & cakes & cookies ohmy!

"This is THE best fruit cobbler. Never dry or crumbly, it is great all alone, or with whipped cream or ice cream. The recipe calls for peaches, but I've used everything from strawberries and rhubarb, to apples. Make it in a disposable pan, and take it to a picnic----you'll get rave reviews."
