This homey American dessert is much easier to make than pie. You simply spoon dollops of soft biscuit dough on top of the apple filling. Some good apple choices are sweet Golden Delicious, semi-tart Jonagold or tart Granny Smith.

2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons sugar
6 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
2/3 cup whole milk, (more, if needed)

How To Make apple cobbler

Step 1

Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and 2 tablespoons sugar in a bowl. Add 6 tablespoons cold butter and blend with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 2/3 cup milk and stir just until soft, sticky dough forms, adding more milk by tablespoons if needed.

Step 2

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet. Add apples and saute over medium heat for 5 minutes, or until slightly softened, adding remaining 1 tablespoon butter if needed to prevent sticking. Add 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, 1 or 2 minutes. Stir in lemon juice. Taste and add more sugar, if desired. Transfer apple mixture to 9-inch oval or square baking dish or a 1.5-quart casserole.
Step 3

Drop 12 heaping tablespoons of dough over hot filling, leaving filling uncovered in spots. Sprinkle dough with 2 teaspoons sugar. Bake cobbler in preheated 425-degree oven 10 minutes or until top is golden brown. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream, if desired.
