An old-fashioned cobbler makes a hit with crowds and one of my favorite cobbler fruits is apricots. These perky golden first fruits of summer have a nice balance of sweet and tart. Fresh in-season fruit is preferred, but I have often used my stash of frozen cots from season’s past, and they work well for cobblers, as do canned. This recipe makes a 2-quart baking dish full, enough for 12 servings. A family-size and slightly different version is linked below ~ scroll down to Useful Links and click on Fresh Apricot Cobbler.

Ingredientes

Cost per serving $1.49 view details
  • 6 cups prepared fresh apricots (about 2.75 pounds purchased or picked)
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 cup sugar, divided
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 6 tablespoons butter, chilled
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 6 tablespoons water
  • Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional)

Direcciones

  1. Prepare fresh apricots (wash; blanch briefly in boiling water to slip skins off; remove pits; slice in halves or quarters; treat with fruit-darkening preventive such as Fruit Fresh or ascorbic acid and set aside.)
  2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Mix together flour, 1/4 cup of the sugar, baking powder and cinnamon (optional). Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs; set aside. Mix together egg and milk; set aside.
  3. In a medium-size 4 1/2 quart saucepot combine cornstarch with 3/4 to 1 cup of remaining sugar. Stir in water and prepared apricots. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly, which only takes a few minutes. Pour into 2-quart oblong baking dish (9" x 13").
  4. Pour reserved egg/milk mixture into cobbler flour mixture and stir just enough to moisten. Drop cobbler topping in small mounds over entire surface of apricots.
  5. Bake 20-25 minutes until cobbler top is golden brown and toothpick inserted in center of topping comes out clean.
  6. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
  7. Note: Thick fruit cobblers sometimes bubble over rim slightly while baking, so it's wise to place a baking sheet on rack underneath cobbler as a precaution.
