Cobbled Together
Jun. 22nd, 2025 10:11 amThis week's Resolution Recipe: Small-Batch Biscuits.
"With just five ingredients and ten minutes of prep time, you can have two golden, tender biscuits ready in time for breakfast."
America's Test Kitchen delved into making fruit cobbler some time ago - their conclusion was that it is impossible to get a consistent bake on the biscuit topping when it is on the fruit; the underside always is doughy. (Confirmed with experience, although I usually don't mind.) Their suggestion was to make deconstructed cobbler, with baked fruit cooked separately and topped with a biscuit. That's what we did here - we each had a small Pyrex pan of cooked apricot/sugar/cinnamon, with a split biscuit on top. It was lovely... but I will take apricot cobbler in pretty much any form during the season.
