Apricot cobbler

This dessert is bound to become a family favourite.

Ingredients (serves 4)
* 2 x 410g cans apricot halves in natural juice
* 1 teaspoon finely grated orange rind
* 1 cup sifted self-raising flour
* 1/3 cup sifted plain flour
* 2 tablespoons caster sugar
* 100g chilled unsalted butter, cubed
* 1 lightly beaten egg
* 1/3 cup milk


Method
1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a 4-cup ovenproof dish. Combine apricot and orange rind. Spoon into the greased dish and set aside.
2. Combine flours, and caster sugar in a large bowl. Add butter, and use your fingertips to rub butter lightly into the flour until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
3. Combine egg and milk in a separate bowl. Make a well in the centre of the flour mixture and pour in the egg mixture. Stir until dough-like then place heaped tablespoonfuls on top of the apricots to cover them entirely.
4. Bake for 35 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Serve immediately.
