Directions

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Wash, peel and slice the apricots. You can slice them thin or thick as you prefer.
• Melt the stick of butter in a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat until it bubbles and turns
• golden-brown. Be careful: it will burn quickly and easily! Pour the butter into an 8" square sprayed baking dish.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the sugar, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, almond flavoring and milk. Pour the batter on top of the melted butter. Do not stir.
• Add the apricots, without mixing, arrange the apricots evenly on top of the batter. Evenly sprinkle the brown sugar over the cobbler.
• Bake the cobbler for 40 to 45 minutes, until the top turns golden brown. The batter will migrate from the bottom of the pan to cover the apricots slices partially.
• Serve warm or at room temperature; preferably with homemade apricot ice cream!
• Substitutions: In most recipes, frozen or canned apricots can be substituted for fresh apricots. The frozen and canned apricots have already been sweetened; therefore, the amount of sugar called for in a recipe will have to be adjusted. Also, the apricots should usually be drained before using.
