Caramel Apple Cobbler
I have made apple crisp plenty of times over the years but I have never thought of using apples for a caramel apple cobbler.
When I think of cobbler, I think peach, cherry, or berry, but never apple. I mean it would only make sense that you could use apple. I just never thought of it.
Well, today’s recipe does just that. It uses apples to make a cobbler. However, there is also the addition of caramel making this a CARAMEL Apple Cobbler. Even better!
The apples are the perfect softness and are surrounded by a sweet sticky caramel sauce. Then there is the batter for the cobbler. It cooks up with a light sugary crispness on top with a tender caky texture on the inside.
I don’t know why I never thought of apples before for a cobbler. This one was amazing and definitely going to be an item I will make each fall now.
