Unripe Fruit? Make Biscuits!

Many times I hear people telling me that they buy fruit to use in a dessert, but when they get it home from the market and cut into it, they find out it’s unripe and think it can no longer be used. And while that’s true for fruit that they wish to serve fresh, it’s quite the opposite for other fruit desserts or baked goods. In fact, unripe fruit is the perfect thing to bake with because it is sturdier than when ripe and can be heated without breaking down too much, while still imparting a great flavor.
Peaches and apricots are the unripe fruits of the moment at farmers’ markets where I live in San Francisco. But just because they’re not ready for fruit salads or parfaits, doesn’t mean they can’t be used to make a mean cobbler, pie, or biscuit.
