How to Make Apples On The Bottom Cobbler
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Peel, core, and slice 6 medium apples (about 6 cups sliced).
- In a large bowl, toss the apples with 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Pour the apple mixture into a 9-inch pie plate or baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add 1/2 cup ice water, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out into a 12-inch circle.
- Drape the dough over the apple filling in the pie plate, tucking the edges underneath.
- Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
