CHERRY AND APRICOT COBBLERS

Steps:

• For the dough, place flour in a bowl and rub in butter until fine and mealy. Do not allow
• to become pasty. Stir in the buttermilk, adding more, one tablespoon at a time, if necessary.
• Press dough together on a floured surface, wrap and allow to rest while preparing filling.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and set a rack in the middle level. For filling combine apricots and cherries in a bowl and toss with sugar. Pour into a large gratin dish or 4 to 6 individual dishes. Dot with butter and sprinkle evenly with the almond extract.
• Divide the dough into the same number of pieces as the dishes. Press the dough out on a floured surface until roughly the size of the baking dish. Lift dough onto filling using a thin, flexible cookie sheet, and cut several vent holes in top. Brush with buttermilk and sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake the cobblers about 20 minutes, until crust is well colored and filling is bubbling. Cool slightly
• on a rack and serve warm or at room temperature with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

SALTED APRICOT-HONEY COBBLER

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.
