Katey’s Notes: 

  1. I don’t measure the fruit I just fill whatever dish I am using about half full with fruit.
  2. The fruit moisture is important, so if you are using a low moisture fruit, then add a little water or juice ( about 1/2 cup) to bring the moisture level up.
  3. Toppings: What ever you want …Have Fun!
  4. I think the Shredded Coconut would be really good but I haven’t tried it cuz Kevin doesn’t like it.
  5. I really like to use pecans because of their buttery flavor, but any will do.
