Description

This Warm Caramel Apple Cobbler With Vanilla Scoop is a delightful way to celebrate autumn flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 medium apples (about pounds), peeled and sliced
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup caramel sauce
  • Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Instructions

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). While that heats up, carefully peel and slice your apples into thin wedges. A mix of tart and sweet apple varieties—such as Granny Smith and Honeycrisp—creates a delightful flavor balance. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples with brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Ensure the apples are perfectly coated—this will amplify their natural sweetness while infusing them with warm spices. Now, drizzle the caramel sauce over the apple mixture and give it a gentle toss, allowing the caramel to blend beautifully with the spices.
  2. Once your apples are ready, transfer the mixture into the greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it out so every slice is evenly positioned. This will ensure uniform cooking and flavor distribution. Toss those juicy apple slices in the baking dish—this creates the perfect base for your cobbler. The filling should be generously coated in caramel, showcasing the beautiful mix of colors as the apples glisten.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour with rolled oats and an extra bit of brown sugar. Add the melted butter, stirring until you achieve a crumbly texture. This topping will bake up crispy and golden, providing a delightful contrast to the soft apple filling. Sprinkle the crumble evenly over the apple filling, ensuring every inch is covered with the buttery goodness.
  4. Place your cobbler into the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes. Keep an eye on it, as both the topping and the apple filling should bubble enthusiastically while the topping turns to a lovely golden brown. Once cooked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. This step lets the filling set slightly, creating a more delightful serving experience.

Notes

Using a variety of apples—like Granny Smith, Fuji, and Honeycrisp—not only adds depth of flavor but also enhances the aesthetic of the dish. If you prefer a sweeter dessert, feel free to add more sugar or caramel sauce to your apple mixture. For a touch of tang, a splash of lemon juice can brighten the apple flavors and offset the sweetness.
