	Mandyf / All my dishes 2 years, 6 months ago My old landlord has an apricot tree and a lemon tree in his back yard. Every summer he would give me a huge paper grocery bag full of apricots.

Ingredients

Filling:

1.5 lbs of fresh apricots, pitted and cut into 1/2 wedges

7 Tablespoons sugar, or more if apricots are tart

1 Tablespoon all purpose flour

1.5 Teaspoons fresh lemon juice

1/2 Teaspoon almond extract

Topping:

3/4 Cup all-purpose flour

3/4 Teaspoon baking powder

1/4 Teaspoon baking soda

1/4 Teaspoon salt

3 Teaspoons sugar

2 Tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

1/2 cup buttermilk

Directions

For filling, toss all filling ingredients together in a 9-inch or ceramic pie plate. Let stand until juicy, about 30 mins.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

For topping, sift together flour, baking powder and baking soda, salt, and 1 teaspoon sugar in a bowl.

Blend in butter with your fingertips or pastry blender until mixture resembles a course meal.

Stir in buttermilk with a fork until combined. Do not overmix.

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough over filling leaving space in between to allow topping to expand.

Sprinkle with 2 remaining teaspoons of sugar.

Bake cobbler in middle rack of oven about 30 minutes until fruit is tender and topping is golden brown.

Cool slightly for 15 minutes and serve warm, with vanilla ice cream if desired.

Now this sounds fabulous. Can't wait to try. I love apricots and never thought about putting them in cobbler form. Thanks for posting.

OKOKOK I've made it and it is in the oven baking and we will enjoy it tonight. I've got to go buy vanilla ice cream and that should top it off nicely. It would've been my parents 69th wedding anniversary but dad didn't make it. I'm making something special/different for my mom , I'm sure she'll enjoy it.
