I want to put my face in this / FRESH FRUIT CAKE
 
It requires a cup of tea or coffee! The recipe can be made with many different combination of summer fruit, like peaches, nectarines, plums, and berries. It’s also great with pears in the Fall. Improvised with a skillet for a baking pan, instead of a regular 8″ pan.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) buttergrated zest of one lemon1 cup flour2 eggs3/4 cup sugar1 tablespoon brown sugar1 teaspoon vanilla1 pinch salt1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda2 cups diced fruit1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Cream the butter and the sugar (I do this by hand using two forks). Add the grated lemon zest. Add the eggs, sugar, and vanilla, stirring each to combine. In a separate bowl combine the flour, salt, and baking soda. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir to combine. Pour the batter into a greased 8″ pan. Top with the fruit. Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon, and sprinkle the mixture on top of the fruit. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is browned.
