Why This Recipe Is So Tasty
This dish highlights the natural sweetness and vibrant colors of fresh fruit. It’s a simple way to enjoy a healthy dessert or side that feels indulgent without added sugars. Baking brings out deep, rich flavors and makes the fruit tender and comforting.
Directions
Warm your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Next, spread out the peaches, pears, rhubarb, raisins, and either papaya or mango evenly in the dish. In a separate bowl, mix together the baking mix, brown sugar, and margarine until it forms a crumbly topping. Sprinkle this mixture over the fruit, making sure to cover it well. Pop the dish into the oven and bake for about 35 to 45 minutes, or until the topping turns a nice golden brown. Let it cool slightly before serving and enjoy!
