Last week, hubs told me that he volunteered me to make a dessert for his work potluck. Normally, I would have just made my TWD recipe for the week but I wasn't really in the mood to make a pie. So, I searched online and found a recipe for apple cranberry cobbler. It looked easy and sounded DELISH.
I baked one up for his potluck and it smelled so good that I decided to make one for my office, too. It got gobbled up at my work but unfortunately, teacher related duties kept my hubby from his potluck and no one put my cobbler out. So, we ended up with an entire cobbler to eat by ourselves at home! But it was sooo good, the only one complaining is my waistline...
The sweet/tart combo and the amazing sweet biscuity topping was mouthwatering! It was one my favorite things I've made recently and I think it may become a holiday tradition. (PS It goes great with ice cream.)
Apple Cranberry Cobbler
(allrecipes.com/pictures by me)
5 cups thinly sliced peeled tart apples (I used Granny Smiths)
1 1/4 cup sugar
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries (I used fresh)
3 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup water
2 tablespoons butter or margarine (I used butter)
Topping:
3/4 cup all purpose flour
2 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup cold butter or margarine (I used butter)
1/4 cup milk
In a large saucepan, combine the apples, sugar, cranberries, tapioca, cinnamon, and water. Let stand for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture comes to a full boil. Cook and stir 3 minutes longer.
Pour into a greased 2-qt. baking dish. Dot with butter.
In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter until crumbly. Stir in milk to form a soft dough. Drop dough by tablespoon fulls over hot apple mixture.
Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or until topping in golden brown and a toothpick inserted into topping comes out clean.
If you love sweet/tart things. Make this now. DO IT!
