Recipe Introduction

Cobblers are a wonderful way to use fruit and you don't have the time consuming task of making a perfect pie crust. The spicy smell of a baked cobbler reminds me of my mothers kitchen. She always had some kind of dessert baked and you could smell the cinnamon even before you entered the house. I love making this dessert in Autumn

List of Ingredients

3 cups all purpose flour
1 cup sugar, divided
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup margarine
2 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons milk
8 cups thinly sliced and peeled apples
2 tablespoons tapioca
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Topping as Follows:
1 tablespoon milk
3/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

In a bowl, mix flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in margarine until crumbly. 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 the bottom of a greased 13x9x2 inch baking pan. Chill the remaining dough. 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. Mix sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle on top. Bake at 350 for 45 to 50 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden.
