Apple Almond Cobbler

Apple Almond Cobbler

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Another classic to put all your apples to use! This is another easy fool-proof recipe that is a little more time-consuming than my Peach Almond Cobbler or my Strawberry Apple hazelnut Cobbler. That’s because the apples have to cook first in their own juices before baking, so that they are perfectly moist. This makes them so sweet and flavorful. In fact, there is no added sugar to the filling– the simmered apples are plenty sweet on their own! I have added ground almonds not only to add nutritional value but also to make it almost “buttery” tasting, and of course, the rolled oats and soft wheat add fiber to boot. The result: A definite harvest apple picking winner…and vegan too!

Apple Cobbler

Cuisinicity Tip: When cooking the apples in the saucepan, there is no need to add any more liquid than the 2 Tbsp water because the apples will release the necessary moisture on their own and create their own sweet condensed juice! They keep their full flavor that way and there is no need to add sugar either!
Servings 8 -10
Author Catherine Katz

Ingredients

  • APPLE FILLING
  • 6-7 medium apples rinsed, unpeeled
  • 2 Tbsp water
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 3 whole cloves
  • 1 Tbsp whole wheat pastry flour
  • COBBLER TOPPING
  • ½ cup ground almond meal or ground almonds*
  • ½ cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 3 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp organic expeller-pressed canola oil
  • 1 Tbsp plain cashew yogurt
  • * you can also grind whole dry roasted unsalted almonds instead.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375
  • Cut the apples with an apple corer/divider.
  • Place the sliced apples, water and cloves in a medium sauce pan (just big enough so that the apples are "snuggled" together to keep their moisture), sprinkle with cinnamon and simmer covered, for 12-15 minutes. Do NOT stir! Turn off the heat and put aside until ready to assemble.
  • Gently mix all APPLE FILLING ingredients in a bowl and place in a 9 inch pie dish.
  • Mix all dry ingredients (almond meal, whole wheat pastry flour, rolled oats and sugar) in a bowl.
  • Add canola oil and cashew yogurt to the dry mixture and work with your fingers to make into a crumbly mixture.
  • Sprinkle evenly over filling.
  • Bake in oven for 15-18 minutes, until the top is golden and the juices are sizzling.

No question this is one-take-only raw footage! I fumble with the very first words out of my mouth: “Ahmpen Almond cobbler”….say what?! I keep going anyway; I am not even phased when I bonk my head on the pretty scale hanging from the ceiling, you know that was coming…I think my idol Julia Child would be so proud! Since this video, I have made this yummy bread vegan by substituting the smart balance with coconut oil (not melted) and the kefir with cashew yogurt.

When I make it these days, I replace the kefir with plain cashew yogurt, and there you have it…vegan!

    I’d like to know if the filling needs to be a little juicier with more water than the crumbles for topping.

      Hi Jane, The recipe for the filling makes it indeed juicier than the crumbles but it shouldn’t need more water.

    I found Cuisinicity a couple of months ago. I am so grateful for all the wonderful recipes I find there! Thank you so much! The AppleCobbler was out of this world delicious! I have enjoyed watching your videos ( such great energy and it shows that you love what you do!) and reading some of your recipes, and now whenever I have the energy to cook or bake something, I look for a recipe among yours! Thank you so much!

      Thank you so much for this recipe! It sounds delicious! I normally do not buy kefir, so I will be trying the buttermilk substitution. Thanks for all your great recipes!

    Hello from Australia
    Would you be able to tell me what smart balance is?

      Hi Ana, it’s a “buttery” spread made of healthy oils, not saturated or transfat. Here is a description, so that you can look for a similar product in Australia: https://www.smartbalance.com/products/buttery-spread/smart-balance-original

Well 3 helpings later answered that!!! She has to do a project in school, and what’s to the this version. I’ll let you know what grade we get, lol !!!

    Catherine,

    I’m such a big fan of your Simply Cinnamon apples, so I’m going to give this cobbler a try soon. I don’t normally have Kefir on hand and wonder if it’s possible to replace the Kefir with non fat Greek yogurt without compromising the cobbler’s outcome?

      Thank you Carleen! I would suggest buttermilk then, instead, because it is just of the right “liquidy” consistency like kefir!

        Hi Carleen! I have been trying to reach you to let you know that you won a Cuisinicity apron but the email came back to me as an error. Would you mind e-mailing me directly at Catherine@Cuisinicity.com with your home address so that I can send it to you? I was hoping to do that this week! Thanks for your wonderful comments as always!!:)

          I received the apron last week; thank you! I also made the apple almond cobbler this past weekend. This recipe is so easy and the almonds add such a nice flavor.

    Hello Catherine,

    Thanks for being so genuine!! I LOVE your non-edited videos (prefer them over the edited ones :)) Also, I love that you use UNPEELED apples- I never knew you could do that (thought it would be too tough). Can you also use unpeeled with apple pie? Another good one Catherine!!

      Thank you Caroline!!! I am thinking too, that leaving all my goofy moments intact (I couldn’t believe when the first words out of my mouth for the apple almond cobbler were gobbledygook!!!!) is what real cooking is all about!! As for my apple tart, I peel the apples for that one, just because it’s more of a “dainty” pastry, but I make my rustic apple cranberry galette with the apples left unpeeled (https://cuisinicity.com/rustic-apple-cranberry-galette/) and it’s really delicious!
