Ingredients
2 cans apricot halves in light syrup (15 oz each)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
1/3 cup milk
1 tablespoon coarse sugar for topping
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Drain the apricots, reserving 1/4 cup of the syrup.
3. In a bowl, mix apricots with reserved syrup, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Spread in a 9-inch ceramic baking dish.
4. In another bowl, whisk 1 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, salt, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.
5. Cut cold butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or fingers until crumbly.
6. Add milk and stir just until a sticky dough forms.
7. Drop spoonfuls of dough over the apricots without spreading.
8. Sprinkle with coarse sugar.
9. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden and bubbling.
10. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use ceramic baking dish for best heat distribution and texture.
Make sure butter is cold when mixing the biscuit topping for a flaky finish.
Let the cobbler rest after baking so the syrup thickens and sets.
