Apple Cinnamon Cobbler

Once again, husband and I over-estimated how much produce we can eat between the two of us and I'm here trying to figure out how to use the rest of our apples before they over ripen (I've made applesauce, apple butter, pie, muffins, etc). Today, I made an Apple Cobbler and the vanilla in it is killer! I only had about 2/3 c. of sugar by the time I started making the batter (oops), so I substituted the rest with 1/3 c. light brown sugar. We served this up with some ice cream (ahem, before dinner) and it was a perfect snack for the perfect fall afternoon we were having!



Apple Cinnamon Cobbler
recipe from Nancy's Kitchen

10 cups apples, peeled and thinly sliced
1-1/2 cups sugar
4 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 cup water

Mix together and pour into 9 x 12 inch
glass baking dish.

Batter
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons butter, softened
2 eggs, lightly beaten

Mix together and pour over apples*, spread out. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 45 minutes or until done.

*The batter has a similar consistency to cookie dough - I would recommend spooning it over in portions, rather than dumping it all directly in the center like I did and trying to spread it out of the apples.
