Mixed fruit cobbler (untested)

This recipe is written in ballpoint pen in Grammy's handwriting. It is dated September 1975 and attributed to "FJ".

The recipe doesn't indicate a specific fruit so I am guessing that any dehydrated fruit you want to use would work. You could combine fruits to make it truly a "mixed fruit" cobbler or make it with just one kind of fruit. This recipe seems like a great way to use food storage.

Ingredients:

• 4 1/2 cup dried fruit
• 4 1/2 cup water
• 2 tablespoons corn starch
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
