Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Granny Smith apples
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 8 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges, then place them in a medium-sized bowl.
Add 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg to the apples. Toss well to coat evenly.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, or microwave it in a microwave-safe bowl until just melted. Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9x9-inch baking dish.
Combine the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar with the milk and vanilla extract. Mix until the sugar is dissolved.
Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture and stir until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir.
Spread the apple slices evenly over the batter. Finally, sprinkle the brown sugar over the apples to enhance caramelization during baking.
Bake the cobbler in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cobbler is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the cobbler from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
