     Yield: 6 servings

     5 c  Cherries or Peaches
          -fresh or canned
 2 1/2 tb Lemon Juice
   1/3 c  Granulated Sugar
   1/3 c  Brown Sugar; packed
 2 1/2 tb Cornstarch

----------------------------------TOPPING----------------------------------
     1 c  All-Purpose Flour
     1 tb Granulated Sugar
     1 ts Baking Powder
   1/4 ts Salt
     2 tb Butter or Margarine
   1/3 c  To 1/2 cup Milk

 Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

 Drain cherries or peaches, reserving 1/4 cup juice. Discard the
 remaining juice. Combine fruit and lemon juice and set aside. In a
 saucepan, combine sugars, cornstarch, cinnamon and nutmeg; stir in
 reserved fruit juice. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently about 2
 minutes. Remove from heat and add fruit and vanilla. If using
 cherries, stir in almond extract instead of the vanilla. Pour into an
 ungreased 8 inch square baking pan.

 For topping, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; cut in
 butter until crumbly. Stir in enough milk to moisten. Drop by
 tablespoonfuls over fruit mixture. Bake at 450 for 10 to 13 minutes
 or until golden brown.

 * We like doubling the dough recipe. If you do, bake at 400 degrees F.
   for 20 to 25 minutes
