Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF (190ºC). Arrange fruit in the bottom of a 9x9-inch, 8x8-inch or 11x7-inch baking dish. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of the sugar over fruit. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Mix together with a fork and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, beat together butter and remaining 1/3 cup (75 ml) sugar until blended and smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla. Beat in half of the flour mixture. Beat in milk. Beat in remaining flour mixture and almonds.
- Drop spoonfuls of the batter on top of the fruit, leaving a 1/2-inch border all around the edge of the dish to leave room for expansion.
- Bake 40-45 minutes, until top is golden brown and fruit is tender and bubbly. Let cool 5 to 10 minutes before serving with frozen yogurt, if desired.
