Cantaloupe Peach Cobbler

1 ripe cantaloupe, seeded, peeled, cubed (about 3-4 cups)

2 ripe peaches or nectarines, seeded, peeled, and cubed

½ c sugar

¼ tsp ground ginger

½ tsp nutmeg

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp vanilla

½ stick Unsalted butter

1 pinch salt

TOPPING

3 Tbsp shortening

1 c all-purpose flour

1 Tbsp sugar

1 ½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp cinnamon

½ tsp salt

½ c milk

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Combine all filling ingredients in a large saucepan and stir. Simmer until the mixture starts to thicken and starts to boil then take off the heat. Transfer the mixture to a 9 x 11 baking dish.

In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Cut in shortening until the dough looks like small crumbs and then mix in milk.

Once a dough forms, scoop spoonfuls of the dough onto the hot fruit mixture.

Bake the cobbler for 25-28 minutes or until the dough turns golden brown.
