In case you ever wondered about these:

Betty: This baked dessert dates back to the colonial times. The most common Betty is the Apple Brown Betty which is made with brown sugar. A Betty also calls for buttered bread crumbs

Buckle: Buckles are baked and are usually made in one or two ways. The first way is that bottom layer is cake-like with the berries mixed in. Then the top layer is crumb-like. The second way is where the cake layer is on the bottom of the pan, the berries are the next layer and the top is the crumble mixture. Blueberry Buckle is the most prevalent Buckle recipe found.

Clafouti: This is a dessert that originated in the French countryside. It is a dessert that the fruit is topped with either a cake or pudding topping. The Clafouti is often considered a baked pudding.

Cobbler: The fruit filling is put in a deep baking dish and topped with a biscuit dough. The dough may completely cover the fruit or it may just be dropped in handfuls. Either way, a cobbler is baked.

Crumble: Similar to the Crisp, the topping is crumbled over the fruit filling in the pan. A Crumble is baked.

Crisp: In this baked dessert, the fruit filling is covered with a crunchy topping

Here is how to do the math on your own:

To convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius
To convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit

Subtract 32°
Divide the result by 9
Multiply by 5

Example: convert 98.6° Fahrenheit to Celsius.
98.6 - 32 = 66.6
66.6 / 9 = 7.4
7.4 x 5 = 37
therefore, 98.6°F is equal to 37°C

Multiply by 9
Divide by 5
Add 32

Example: convert 37° Celsius to Fahrenheit
37 x 9 = 333
333 / 5 = 66.6
66.6 + 32 = 98.6
therefore, 37°C is equal to 98.6°F
