Homemade Apple Cobbler

 

A few weeks ago we visited Sky Top Orchard in Flat Rock, NC. A place we’ve biked by in the past but have never visited in our 8 years living in Greenville, SC. 

While the process of collecting a variety of apples from the tree was satisfying, I felt sad seeing all the wasted apples on the ground. Although some were rotten, there were many that were perfectly imperfect. I made the effort to hunt on the ground, filling over half our bag with hidden gems found under the trees. Nature isn’t perfect and neither is produce. I'm happy to report that we were successful in eating, baking and cooking almost all of our apples from the orchard. We only have five left from this big bowl. 



I'm thankful that Joey created the perfect apple cobbler recipe for our newsletter to inspire us to bake with our apples. I hope you enjoy this delicious recipe. Thanks Joey! 

Apple Cobbler

By Joey Mock, RD, LD, CLT
Apple picking season is nearing an end in the Carolinas but there is still a little time left to make a trip to an orchard to grab some fresh apples. One of my favorite traditions during apple season is making homemade apple cobbler (and my favorite apples to use in this recipe are Mutsu as they are great for baking and flavor packed). This recipe is easy, delicious, and requires just a few simple ingredients.
Ingredients
  • 4 to 5 medium sized apples (such as Mutsu, Honey Crisp, Fuji, Golden Delicious, Cameo, Pink Lady), cored, peeled, and chopped into equal sized chunks
  • ½ lemon, juiced
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup self-rising flour
  • 1 egg
  • ⅓ cup butter, melted
Preparation
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Toss the apples with the lemon juice in an 8 x 8 baking dish.
  • Combine the sugar, flour, and egg in a bowl and mix well (mixture will be crumbly). Spread the mixture over top of the apples.
  • Drizzle the top of the sugar mixture with melted butter.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 35-40 minutes. If necessary and desired, broil for about a minute to brown top of cobbler.
  • Remove from oven and cool dish on wire cooling rack.
  • Enjoy!
