Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Apples (peeled, cored, and sliced)
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups Brown sugar (packed)
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour (for topping)
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar (for topping)
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt (for topping)
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, lemon juice, and melted butter. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.
Spread the apple mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
In another mixing bowl, prepare the cobbler topping. Combine the 1.5 cups of flour, 0.5 cups of sugar, baking powder, and 0.25 teaspoons of salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until just combined. Do not overmix. The dough will be sticky.
Drop spoonfuls of the topping over the apple mixture, covering most of the surface but leaving some gaps for steam to escape.
Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling around the edges.
Remove from the oven and allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
