This is a beautiful, elegant breakfast dish that would be perfect to serve to overnight guests or for a romantic Valentine's Brunch. Easy, yet delicious and very attractive with the bits of fruit. I used canned apricots and fresh strawberries since peaches & raspberries were not in season. Thank for a lovely breakfast!

We really liked this. My DH thought the fruit was a little sour, so next time I may sprinkle the fruit with sugar as I'm cooking it, before adding the batter. Thanks for a great recipe.
