Apricot-Blueberry Cobbler

In a shallow 3-quart casserole, stir together tapioca and 1 cup of the sugar. Add apricots, blueberries, and lemon juice; mix gently. Let stand, stirring gently several times, until tapioca is softened (at least 20 minutes). Meanwhile, prepare Biscuit Topping.

On a lightly floured board, roll or pat out Biscuit Topping about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into circles with a 2 1/2-inch cookie cutter; re roll scraps and cut. Place biscuits slightly apart on fruit mixture. Brush biscuits with egg white, then sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar.

Bake in a 400-degree oven until fruit is bubbly in center (40 to 50 minutes). Serve warm or at room temperature. Makes l0 to 12 servings.
