Delicious Apricot Cobbler

Ingredients

Fresh apricots

4 cups, pitted and sliced

Granulated sugar

3/4 cup, divided

Cornstarch

2 tablespoons

Lemon juice

1 tablespoon

Ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon

All-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups

Baking powder

2 teaspoons

Salt

1/2 teaspoon

Unsalted butter

1/2 cup, cold and cubed

Milk

3/4 cup

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apricots, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Mix well to ensure the apricots are evenly coated.
3. Transfer the apricot mixture to a greased baking dish (about 9x13 inches).
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 1/4 cup of sugar, baking powder, and salt.
5. Add the cold cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
6. Pour in the milk and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
7. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the apricot mixture in the baking dish, allowing some of the fruit to peek through.
8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the apricots are bubbling around the edges.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
