Peach and Apricot Cobbler

Ingredients

Peaches

4 cups, sliced

Apricots

2 cups, sliced

Granulated sugar

1 cup, divided

Cornstarch

2 tablespoons

Lemon juice

1 tablespoon

Ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon

All-purpose flour

1 cup

Baking powder

2 teaspoons

Salt

1/4 teaspoon

Unsalted butter

1/2 cup, cold and cubed

Milk

1/2 cup

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, sliced apricots, 3/4 cup of granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Mix well to ensure the fruit is evenly coated.
3. Transfer the fruit mixture to a greased 9x9-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
4. In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, remaining 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
5. Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
6. Pour in the milk and stir gently until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
7. Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler dough evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish, covering the fruit as much as possible.
8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cobbler topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
9. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving warm.
10. For an extra treat, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
