Description
A quick and easy Apple Cobbler recipe featuring tender, spiced apples topped with a golden, fluffy biscuit-like crust. Perfect for a comforting dessert served warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
Ingredients
Apple Filling
- 10 cups peeled, cored, and sliced apples (from about 8-10 apples)
- Juice from half a lemon
- ¾ cup lightly packed brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons apple pie spice
- ⅓ cup water or apple juice
Topping
- 3 ¼ cups homemade Bisquick mix
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk
- Coarse sugar for topping
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F to ensure it’s at the right temperature when you’re ready to bake the cobbler.
- Prepare Apples: Place the peeled, cored, and sliced apples into a 13×9-inch baking dish. Drizzle with the juice from half a lemon to prevent browning and add a fresh tang.
- Make Apple Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, and apple pie spice. Sprinkle this mixture over the apples, then stir gently to coat all apple slices evenly. Spread the coated apples evenly in the baking dish and pour water or apple juice over them for moisture.
- Prepare Topping: In a medium bowl, combine the homemade Bisquick mix and granulated sugar. Stir in the milk just until combined to form a batter. Dollop this topping evenly over the apple mixture in the baking dish. Sprinkle coarse sugar evenly over the topping to add a crunchy texture and sweet finish.
- Bake the Cobbler: Bake the cobbler in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the topping turns golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling around the edges, indicating it is cooked through.
- Serve: Remove from oven and serve warm. For extra indulgence, top with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Notes
- Use a mix of tart and sweet apples for balanced flavor and texture.
- Coarse sugar topping adds a delightful crunch but can be omitted if unavailable.
- For homemade Bisquick, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and shortening.
- Serve immediately for best texture; leftovers can be reheated.
