Easy Batter Fruit Cobbler

This is an easy to make cobbler that can be made with whatever fresh fruit is in season-sliced peaches or nectarines, or whole strawberries,raspberries, blackberries, or a combination of berries. A 12 ounce bag of frozen mixed berries may also be used, but in my opinion, fresh is better! Serve warm or at room temperaure with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
