1 stick melted butter
1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup milk
1 cup sugar
1 can of any fruit, I usually use peaches - the 30 oz size -- drain about
1/2 juice
Melt butter in large casserole or baking dish. Mix flour-sugar and milk, will still be a little lumpy and thin. Pour into melted butter. Add peaches (just pour in). Bake at 375 for about 45 minutes or until golden brown. Great with ice cream or just milk, while warm. Instead of peaches, your can use a large can of any pie filling, apple, cherry etc. People will think you worked hard on it. Sometimes I use a few chopped nuts or coconut on top, before baking

After they have been out of the freezer for 10 minutes, blend then in the food processor until smooth like ice cream. Serve. Garnish with a slice of fresh banana, if you wish.
