- Ready In:
- 55mins
- Ingredients:
- 11
- Yields:
-
1 cobbler
- Serves:
- 6
ingredients
- 20 ounces apple pie filling
- 1 cup baking mix (Bisquick or other)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder (fresh!)
- 3 tablespoons sugar, divided
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 7⁄8 cup whole milk
- 1⁄2 teaspoon canola oil
- 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- cooking spray
directions
- Preheat the oven to 350-degrees F.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the baking mix, the flour, baking powder, 2 tablespoons of the sugar, the beaten egg, the salt, the canola oil, the vanilla, and the milk. The batter will be pretty thin.
- Spray a 9" x 9" baking dish with the cooking spray and spread the apple pie filling in the bottom. Pour the batter over it and place into the preheated oven.
- After 25 minutes, remove the cobbler from the oven and sprinkle the remaining sugar (1 tablespoon) and the cinnamon over the top. Return it to the oven right away and bake for 15-20 more minutes until it is light brown on top. You can test the top with a toothpick at the end of this time to see if it comes out clean. If so, it's done. If not, bake for a few more minutes.
- NOTE: You can also substitute cherry or blueberry pie filling for this recipe!

I made this on 7/8/08 for the "Cobblers-Pies-And Tarts Challenge 2008 "event in the Cooking Photo Forum. I also want to say that I'm pleased to be the first one to rate and review this recipe. I sort of made the recipe as written, except I tasted the batter before adding the egg and thought it needed a bit more sugar. So, I added close to 1/2 cup more.I really liked the idea of using pie filling instead of not having to peel and cut apples. The taste of this was very good.This is a "Comfort Food" dessert without all the work. And this will will be made again. Thanks for posting and, "Keep Smiling :)"

<p>I am a retired State Park Resort Manager/Ranger. <br /><br />Anyway, as to my years in the State Park System (retired now), I was responsible for 4 restaurants/dining rooms on my park and my boss at Central Headquarters said I should spend less time in my kitchens and more time tending to my park budget. I spent 25 years in those kitchens and worked with some really great chefs over those years, (and some really awful ones too!) <br /><br />I spent THOUSANDS of hours on every inch of that park and adjacent state forest (60,000 acres) and sometimes I miss it. But mostly I miss being in that big beautiful resort lodge kitchen. I miss my little marina restaurant down on the Ohio River too. I served the best Reuben Sandwich (my own recipe -- posted on 'Zaar as The Shawnee Marina Reuben Sandwich) in both the State of Ohio and the Commonwealth of Kentucky down there and sold it for $2.95. Best deal on the river! <br /><br />They (friends and neighbors) call my kitchen The Ospidillo Cafe. Don't ask me why because it takes about a case of beer, time-wise, to explain the name. Anyway, it's a small galley kitchen with a Mexican motif (until my wife catches me gone for a week or so), and it's a very BUSY kitchen as well. We cook at all hours of the day and night. You are as likely to see one of my neighbors munching down over here as you are my wife or daughter. I do a lot of recipe experimentation and development. It has become a really fun post-retirement hobby -- and, yes, I wash my own dishes. <br /><br />Also, I'm the Cincinnati Chili Emperor around here, or so they say. (Check out my Ospidillo Cafe Cincinnati Chili recipe). SKYLINE CHILI is one of my four favorite chilis, and the others include: Gold Star Chili, Empress Chili and, my VERY favorite, Dixie. All in and around Cincinnati. Great stuff for cheap and I make it at home too. <br /><br />I also collect menus and keep them in my kitchen -- I have about a hundred or so. People go through them and when they see something that they want, I make it the next day. That presents some real challenges! <br /><br />http://www.dnr.state.oh.us/parks/parks/shawnee.htm</p>
