APRICOT-ALMOND COBBLER



Apricot-Almond Cobbler image

A cobbler is a fruit dessert with a thick top layer of crust. In this version of the classic, spiced apricot wedges are arranged atop a toasted-almond batter. Baking puffs up the cake, so only bits of fruit peek through.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup whole raw almonds
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Salt
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
6 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup whole milk, room temperature
1 large egg, room temperature
2 tablespoons almond-flavored liqueur, such as Amaretto
1 1/2 pounds apricots, halved lengthwise, pitted, and cut into 3/4-inch-thick wedges
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Toast almonds on a rimmed baking sheet in oven, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely. Finely grind almonds in a food processor; transfer to a medium bowl. Whisk in flour, 3/4 cup sugar, the baking powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and the nutmeg; set aside.
  • Brush a 10-inch cast iron skillet with 2 tablespoons butter. Whisk together remaining 4 tablespoons butter, the milk, egg, and liqueur in a medium bowl. Stir butter mixture into flour mixture. Spread batter evenly into buttered skillet.
  • Stir together apricots, remaining 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, a pinch of salt, and the lemon juice in a medium bowl. Spread apricot mixture evenly over batter. Bake until a cake tester inserted into center comes out with moist crumbs, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool in skillet on a wire rack 1 hour before serving.

SALTED APRICOT-HONEY COBBLER



Salted Apricot-Honey Cobbler image

Unlike most cobblers, which ask you to chop or slice the fruit, this one is meant to preserve the integrity of the apricots, which bake until totally tender, jammy and saucy, while still maintaining their shape and texture. The idea is to spoon out one of the barely sweetened, oaty shortcakes from the pan and then top it with the roasted, honey-sweetened fruit. Ice cream is optional but recommended.

Provided by Alison Roman

Categories     pies and tarts, dessert

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/3 cups/175 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 cup/55 grams quick-cooking oats
1/4 cup/50 grams granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup/115 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), cut into 1-inch pieces, chilled
1/2 cup/120 milliliters heavy cream, plus more for brushing shortcakes
Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling
2 pounds/900 grams apricots, pitted and halved (or quartered if very large)
1/4 cup/60 milliliters honey
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons fresh lime or lemon juice
Pinch of kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Make the shortcake topping: Combine flour, oats, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Using your hands, rub the butter into the flour mixture until there are no large chunks left. Add 1/2 cup heavy cream and mix just until blended, then turn the dough out onto lightly floured work surface.
  • Knead dough just until it's no longer super-sticky, and then pat the dough out so it's 1-inch thick. (The shape here doesn't matter; you'll be cutting out circles.) Using a 2-inch-round cutter, or something approximately that size (water glasses and Mason jars also work), punch out as many shortcakes as you can. Gently gather and re-pat the scraps so they're 1-inch thick and repeat until all the dough is used. You should have 8 or 9 shortcakes.
  • Prepare the filling: Toss apricots with honey, cornstarch, lime juice and kosher salt in a 2-quart baking dish (an 8-by-11-inch or 9-by-13-inch dish will work), then flip the fruit so they are all cut-side up. The apricot pieces will overlap a bit, and this is fine. Top with shortcakes; they will puff and spread quite a bit, so leave them well spaced. The idea is to have lots of fruit exposed once baked, so don't worry about the shortcakes covering every square inch. Brush the shortcakes with cream, and sprinkle with a little bit of sugar and flaky sea salt.
  • Bake until shortcakes are golden brown and the juices of the apricot have thickened and bubbled up around the edges of the baking dish, 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and let cool slightly before eating (though it's even better at room temperature). This cobbler is the best the day it's made, but it can be baked a day ahead and stored tightly wrapped at room temperature.

Tips for Making the Perfect Apricot Cobbler
To make sure your apricot cobbler comes out perfectly, here are some tips you might find handy:
  • Make sure to use ripe and sweet apricots. If using canned apricots, choose ones that are packed in juice or light syrup.
  • Use cold butter and handle it as little as possible. This will create a flaky and buttery biscuit crust.
  • Don't overmix the biscuit dough; it should be lumpy.
  • You can add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to the flour mixture for extra flavor.
  • If you want a sweeter cobbler, add more sugar to the apricots or sprinkle some coarse sugar on top of the biscuit crust before baking.
Variations of Apricot Cobbler
While the classic apricot cobbler is delicious on its own, you can also experiment with variations to suit your taste:
  • Add other fruits like peaches, berries, or cherries to the apricots for a mixed-fruit cobbler.
  • Use almond flour instead of all-purpose flour for a gluten-free version.
  • Swap the milk for coconut milk or almond milk for a dairy-free version.
  • Serve the cobbler with a drizzle of honey or caramel sauce instead of whipped cream or ice cream.
In conclusion, apricot cobbler is a delightful dessert that can be made easily with just a few simple ingredients. With its sweet and tangy taste and buttery biscuit crust, it is a classic American dessert that is perfect for any occasion. So, the next time you have fresh or canned apricots lying around, try making an apricot cobbler; you won't regret it!
When it comes to desserts, cobbler is one of the most comforting and delicious options. And if you want to add a fruity twist to this classic dessert, apricot cobbler is the perfect choice. However, making apricot cobbler can be a bit challenging, especially if you are a beginner. But don't worry, we've got you covered! In this article, we'll share some valuable tips to help you make the perfect apricot cobbler.

Tips for Making Apricot Cobbler Recipes

1. Choose the Right Apricots
The key to making a delicious apricot cobbler is using fresh, ripe apricots. Look for apricots that are slightly soft to the touch, fragrant, and have a deep orange color. Avoid using overripe apricots as they will be too sweet and mushy, which can ruin the texture of your cobbler.
2. Use the Right Type of Flour
When making cobbler, it's important to use the right type of flour to ensure the right texture. All-purpose flour is a good choice for most cobblers, but for apricot cobbler, consider using pastry flour. Pastry flour has a lower protein content, which makes it perfect for delicate doughs and pastries.
3. Don't Overwork the Dough
When making the dough for your apricot cobbler topping, it's important not to overwork it. Overworking the dough can result in tough, chewy cobbler. Mix the ingredients until just combined, and then stop. You don't want to knead the dough like you would for bread.
4. Use Cold Butter
When making the dough for your cobbler, make sure you use cold butter. Cold butter helps create a flaky and tender crust. If your butter is too warm, it will melt into the flour and result in a greasy and dense crust.
5. Cut the Butter into Small Pieces
When incorporating the butter into the flour, make sure you cut it into small pieces. This will help distribute the butter evenly throughout the dough, which is essential for a flaky crust.
6. Use a Pastry Cutter
Using a pastry cutter or a fork can help you incorporate the butter into the flour without overworking the dough. A pastry cutter is specifically designed for this purpose and will give you the best results.
7. Use Cornstarch to Thicken the Filling
Apricots release a lot of liquid when they are baked, which can result in a watery filling. To prevent this, use cornstarch to thicken the filling. Mix the cornstarch with sugar and sprinkle it over the apricots before adding the topping.
8. Add Spices for Flavor
To enhance the flavor of your apricot cobbler, consider adding spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to the filling. These warm spices will complement the sweetness of the apricots and give your cobbler a delicious aroma.
9. Bake Until Golden Brown
When baking your apricot cobbler, make sure you bake it until it's golden brown. This will ensure that the crust is cooked all the way through and has a nice, crunchy texture.
10. Serve Warm with Ice Cream
Lastly, serve your apricot cobbler warm with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream. The contrast of hot and cold, sweet and tangy is a heavenly combination and will make your cobbler even more delicious.

Conclusion

Making the perfect apricot cobbler is all about using fresh ingredients, the right type of flour, and following the right techniques. By using these tips, you'll be able to make a delicious apricot cobbler that your family and friends will love!
