Ingredients

Filling

  • 4-5 apples
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon Minute tapioca

Cobbler Topping

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter cubed
  • ¾ cup heavy cream

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350º Fahrenheit.
  • Grease a 9x9 baking pan or 4-6 individual baking dishes with butter.

Apple Filling

  • Peel and slice apples.
  • Toss together the apple slices, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and tapioca.
  • Set aside while you make the cobbler topping.

Cobbler Topping

  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, ½ cup sugar, baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and salt.
  • Cut the chilled butter into small cubes. Using a pastry blender cut the butter into the flour mixture until it forms large, course crumbs.
  • Gradually add the cream and mix just until the dough comes together. Do Not overmix!
  • The dough should be slightly sticky and large globs.
  • Pour the apples into the baking dish or divide equally in individual baking dishes.
  • Drop the dough by heaping tablespoons over the apples.
  • Leave in clumps, do not smooth out.
  • Place the baking dish on cookie sheet or foil, to catch juices that tend to bubble out.
  • Bake in 350º F oven for 50-60 minutes. The cobbler topping should be nicely browned and the fruit bubbling.
  • Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream.
