Does anyone have a recipe for used to be called "wash day pie"..I recollect it was more like a cobbler.

I searched it and found this...

Does this sound like it? (Except when I read it I think the "fruit juice" probably should be just "fruit"!

that does sound like it..I do remember the cupa this, cupa that...
and you are correct, it should be FRUIT, not juice!
I remember granny making peach mostly!

Thanks

This is exactly how I make cobbler, using fruit instead of fruit juice of course. I cook at 350º until done, don't really know how long.

What happened to the baking power? I always use baking powder..same recipe though:

1 stick butter, 1/4 cup
1 cup flour
1 cup milk
1 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
4 to 5 cups fruit
Sprinkle with a sugar and cinnamon mixture then add whip cream dollop to each serving

You are right, I also use baking powder and I put in pumpkin pie spice blend..I like it spicy!

Another version.I'd prob add mushrooms

I have a recipe just like Lady Diana's except I use self rising flour and it's called TV Cobbler.

I like the "TV" rather than "Wash Day" title...

I think they meant fruit and juice...

This is the same one I make a lot but it is called Lazy Man's Peach Cobbler. I use Cherry Pie Filling because I don't like peaches but you could use any kind of canned fruit or pie filling.

recipe sounds good, I dont think I have ever had it.
