Apple Cobbler

Warm apple cobbler, ice cream and coffee.

That's the perfect intro to fall.

I love to use my apple baker. It hangs on my 

pot rack just looking cute when not in use.

But you can also use a pie dish.

 This is so much easier than making a pie.

 Peel, core and slice the apples. Toss the slices
with a squirt of lemon juice then toss again
with brown sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon.

 Use the butter wrapper to grease your dish.

 Pile in the apples

 Combine the flour and sugar. Cut in the butter.
I found this cute red wood handled pastry blender
in a thrift shop. Love it! Hang that up too.

 Add the streusel crumbles to the top.

 Bake until golden and apples are bubbly, about
40-45 min.
 I like to use Granny Smith or Macintosh apples.
Serve warm with ice cream.
Save some to warm up for breakfast.
