4. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
5. Place butter in a cast iron Dutch oven (5 to 6 quarts), or a large cast iron skillet (what I use); place on stove to melt butter; remove from heat.
6. In a bowl, combine the Crust mixture with the water and mix until just combined; pat out dough until formed into a large round patty big enough to fit into bottom of skillet with a small amount up the sides.
7. Spoon the fruit mixture over the dough.
8. Place in oven and bake 30 to 40 minutes until dough is golden brown and risen, and the fruit is bubbly.
9. Remove from oven and let cool for 15 minutes.
