8 fresh nectarines, pitted and sliced (about 4 cups)
2 cups fresh blackberries
1 cup granulated sugar, divided
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
½ cup pecans, chopped and divided
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
⅔ cup whole milk
Vanilla ice cream, to serve
Garnish: confectioners’ sugar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°. In a large bowl, combine nectarines, blackberries, ⅓ cup granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and ¼ cup pecans. Spoon fruit mixture into a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, and pour melted butter over mixture.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining ⅔ cup granulated sugar. Whisk in milk (batter will be thick). Fold in remaining ¼ cup pecans. Spread batter over fruit mixture, leaving a 1 inch border.
Bake until top is golden brown, about 45 minutes. Serve with ice cream. Garnish with confectioners’ sugar, if desired.
