cobbler | A little Swiss, a little Canadian

Delicious served warm with vanilla ice cream! Cozy fall flavors in one simple dish!

This dessert has become another family favorite, using local apples, maple syrup and I added a few dried cranberries!

Apple Spice Cobbler

Apple Filling:

1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup white spelt flour
juice of 1/2 lemon
5 small apples, peeled and cut into small pieces
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp pumpkin spice
optional: 1/4 cup dried cranberries

Topping:

1 1/2 cups white spelt flour
1/2 cup organic cane sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup cold butter, cut in small pieces
1 cup milk, (I used unsweetened cashew milk)

– Preheat oven to 375 F, (convection setting), grease a 9 × 9 baking dish.

– For the apple filling: In a medium bowl, mix together apples, lemon juice, cinnamon, pumpkin spice, maple syrup, cranberries and flour. Fill into baking dish and bake for 10 minutes.

– For the topping: In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder and soda, salt, sugar. Using fingers or a pastry blender, cut in butter until crumbly. Using a fork, stir in milk just until combined.

– Spoon over apples, covering completely. Bake for 40 minutes or until golden and bubbly.

– Tastes wonderful when served warm!

I hope you’ll give it a try!

Enjoy!

Another simple but oh so delicious summer recipe that is perfect for using fresh and local berries! My first time making a cobbler, I was pleasantly surprised how yummy it is! I will definitely be making it again using other fruits like cherries, or the classic, peaches!
