A buckle is a decadent dessert hybrid: cakelike cobbler with a crumble topping. Our plum-nectarine buckle is made with vanilla cake batter. The wedges of fruit provide moisture and streaks of sunset color.

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush a 9-inch square cake pan or 10-inch cast iron skillet with 2 tablespoons butter; set aside. Whisk together flour, 3/4 cup sugar, the baking powder, allspice, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Whisk together egg, milk, vanilla, and remaining 4 tablespoons butter in another medium bowl. Add egg mixture to flour mixture; stir to combine. Spread batter evenly into buttered pan.
