A treasured family recipe, this cobbler is a delicious old-fashioned dessert. It travels well and slices nicely, so it's perfect for picnics or tailgate parties. We like apples, but you can use your favorite fruit. -Rita Reifenstein, Evans City, Pennsylvania Ingredients:
3 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup sugar, divided |
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed |
2 eggs |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
3 to 4 tablespoons milk |
8 cups thinly sliced peeled tart apples |
2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
topping: |
1 tablespoon milk |
3/4 teaspoon sugar |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until crumbly.
2. In another bowl, lightly beat eggs and vanilla; add to crumb mixture. With a fork, gently mix in milk to moisten. Stir until dough forms a ball. Press half of the dough into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Chill the remaining dough.
3. Toss apples with tapioca, cinnamon and remaining sugar; place over dough in pan. On a lightly floured surface, roll chilled dough to fit top of pan. Place over apples. Brush with milk. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle on top. Bake at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden. Yield: 12-16 servings.
