Equipment

  • 5 quart slow cooker
  • Mixing bowl
  • dish towel (it absorbs moisture)

Ingredients
  

Apple mixture

  • non-stick cooking spray
  • 4 baking apples (Gala, Fuji, Honey Crisp, Granny Smith, etc.) cubed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp corn starch
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • pinch ground nutmeg

Cobbler mixture

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1.5 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter melted

Instructions
 

Prepare apple mixture

  • Spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Add apples to slow cooker.
  • In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the rest of the apple mixture ingredients, then add the mixture to the apples and toss to coat evenly.

Prepare cobbler mixture

  • To the now-empty mixing bowl, combine the cobbler mixture ingredients. Stir to combine, then spoon or pour the batter over the apples in the slow cooker and spread evenly.
  • Place dish towel under lid and cook on high for about 2 hours. If the cobbler topping doesn't look fully cooked, cook for another 20-30 minutes or until the topping is fully cooked.
  • The edges will be chewy and slight crispy with a soft cake-like cobbler topping. Excellent served with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream! Enjoy!

Notes

  • If your slow cooker is known to have a "hot spot", rotate crock at the half-way point if possible to prevent burning.
  • This recipe has only been tested in an oval 5-quart slow cooker.  If you use a different size slow cooker, the cooking times may vary.
