Directions:
Cream first 1/2 c. sugar with butter, until light and fluffy. Sift together dry ingredients and to sugar/butter mixture alternately with the milk. Beat until smooth. Pour into greased pan (10x5x3 loaf or 2 quart casserole). Spoon the fruit over the batter. Sprinkle with the additional sugar. Pour fruit juice over top. Bake 45-50 minutes at 325º, until top springs back when lightly touched. Makes 6 servings.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Super easy. Kids love (and so do I) that the fruit and juice goes to the bottom, and a light cake-like layer forms on top. Excellent with canned peaches or fruit cocktail (spring for the kind with extra cherries). Even better served with whipped cream or ice cream.
