"I live in northern Manitoba, where fresh nectarines and plums are usually available only at summer’s end. So I make up the fruit filling and freeze it for use all winter. My family really enjoys this nectarine cobbler and it’s wonderful topped with vanilla ice cream. —Darlene Jackson, The Pas, Manitoba..."
