Apple Cider Cobbler

  4.8 – 12 reviews  • Christmas
Talk about an easy holiday dessert! Served warm with a scoop of butter pecan (my favorite!) or vanilla ice cream, this cobbler is the perfect ending to a festive meal. I like to use Honeycrisp apples in my cobbler, but feel free to use your favorite variety.
Level: Easy
Total: 1 hr 15 min
Active: 30 min
Yield: 6 to 8 servings

Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for buttering the baking dish
  2. 7 to 8 medium apples, sliced (5 to 6 cups)
  3. 1 cup sugar
  4. 1/2 cup apple cider
  5. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  6. 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  7. Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  8. 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  9. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  10. Pinch kosher salt
  11. 1 1/2 cups baking mix, such as Bisquick
  12. 1/2 cup whole buttermilk
  13. 1/2 cup sugar
  14. 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  15. Vanilla or butter pecan ice cream, for serving, optional

Instructions

  1. For the apple filling: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
  2. Combine the apples, sugar, apple cider, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon zest and juice in a Dutch oven or large saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the apples begin to soften, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, then add the butter, cornstarch, vanilla and salt. Pour into the prepared dish.
  3. For the topping: Mix the baking mix, buttermilk, sugar and melted butter in a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Spoon the topping over the apple mixture with an ice cream scoop. Bake until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbly, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream, if desired.

This was so delicious, warm out of the oven, I could not stop eating it! Used all granny smith apples.
Followed recipe except I used low fat buttermilk because thats what I had.

I made this cobbler and it was amazing, but I had to substitute the bisquick with (1 cup flour, 1 ½ tsp baking powder, ½ tsp salt and 1 Tbsp vegetable oil ( Spectrum palm fruit oil) this recipe, because I can’t eat soy, so I double the the mix to get the right amount and I use this mix along with, the boiled cider I get from King Arthur. My family loved it!
