Nothing says cozy comfort quite like a homemade apple cobbler. The warmth of cinnamon, the delicate sweetness of fresh apples, and a buttery streusel topping create pure dessert magic. Meet your new favorite fall treat: the Apple & Spice Dream Cobbler, guaranteed to fill your kitchen with a heavenly aroma and delight everyone at the table.
Ingredients
- 6 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup cold, unsalted butter (cut into cubes)
- ¼ cup rolled oats (optional, for extra crunch)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, combine sliced apples with granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat every apple slice in those sweetly spiced flavors. Transfer this mixture to a lightly greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, and salt. If you’re looking for extra crunch, add the rolled oats. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, quickly blend in the cold butter cubes until you have pea-sized crumbles. Sprinkle this streusel mixture evenly over the apples, ensuring no corner is left uncovered.
Slide the cobbler into the preheated oven and bake for about 35–40 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling at the edges. Let the cobbler rest for a few minutes before serving, so the flavors can meld and the juices can thicken.
This spiced apple cobbler is a fantastic way to celebrate the season, particularly if you’re craving warm, homestyle comfort food. It’s a real crowd-pleaser for family gatherings and easy enough for weeknight treats. You can reduce the sugar if you prefer a less sweet dessert, or swap in whole wheat flour for a potentially heartier bite. Top it off with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a blissful finish. Enjoy every spoonful of this apple-spice goodness!
