US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9x13-in or large round baking pan.

For the Filling

  • Add sliced apples, brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, apple pie spice, vanilla, water, and wine in a large bowl. Toss to combine. Transfer apples to prepared baking pan and cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 20 minutes.
  • While the apples are cooking, prepare the topping.

For the Topping

  • Combine flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, 1 tsp cinnamon, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse a few times to combine.
  • Add cold butter and pulse until sand-like texture. Add hot water until a dough forms. The mixture should be the consistency of drop biscuits. Add 1 -2 tablespoons at a time if your dough is too dry.
  • Once apples have cooked, use a large scoop or a spoon to drop the dough over the apples. Combine the remaining sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over the dough. Bake uncovered for 30-40 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes then serve it up.

Notes

How to store & reheat apple cobbler

Make sure you cool the cobbler down to room temp. Then store in an airtight container or cover with foil and pop in the fridge.
To reheat, preheat the oven to 250 degrees, take the cobbler out of the fridge and transfer it to an oven-safe dish, if need be.
For individual serving sizes, reheat for 10-15 minutes. For an entire cobbler, reheat for 30-45 minutes. Take the cobbler out of the oven, and allow it to rest for 5-10 minutes before getting down.

How long will apple cobbler last in the fridge?

It should keep up to 3-4 days in the fridge.

Can I freeze?

For sure boos! Just wrap super tightly in plastic wrap then cover that with foil. Make sure you label with the date. It should last for up to 3 months.
