     1/2   c            Sugar
   1       c            Flour
   1       tb           Corn starch
   1       tb           Sugar
     1/4   ts           Cinnamon
   1 1/2   ts           Baking powder
   6       md           Sliced peaches
     1/2   ts           Salt
   1       t            Lemon juice
     1/2   c            Milk
   3       tb           Shortening

  Heat oven to 400.  Mix 1/2 cup sugar, the cornstarch and cinnamon in a
  2-quart saucepan.  Stir in the peaches and lemon juice.  Cook,
  stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and boils.  Boil and
  stir for one minute.  Pour into an ungreased 2-quart casserole; keep
  hot in the oven.

  Cut shortening into flour, 1 tb sugar, the baking powder and salt
  until mixture resembles fine crumbs.  Stir in milk.  Drop dough by 6
  spoonfuls onto hot peach mixture.

  Bake until topping is golden brown - about 25-30 minutes.  Serve warm
  with cinnamon whipped cream.

  For Blueberry - Omit cinnamon. Substitute 4 c blueberries for peaches.

  For Cherry - Substitute 4 c pitted red tart cherries for peaches
  and increase sugar in cherry mixture to 1 1/4 c, corn starch to 3
  tb and substitute 1/4 ts almond extract for lemon juice.

  For Plum - Substitute 4 c sliced plums (about 14 large plums) for
  the peaches. Increase sugar in plum mixture to 3/4 c, corn starch
  to 3 tb, and cinnamon to 1/2 ts.

  Cinnamon Whipped Cream - Beat 1 c chilled whipping cream, 3 tb
  sugar and 1/2 ts ground cinnamon in a chilled bowl until stiff.
