Easy Apple Cobbler

This is a simple dessert which is quick to make and uses ingredients which are always at hand in the kitchen.


You can use any fruit as the flavour which is topped with a vanilla batter and baked until golden. This dish got its name as once cooked the top of the dish looks like a cobbled street.

I served it with praline ice cream but any flavour is delicious melting into the warm pudding.

Apple mix
5 cups tart apples peeled and sliced
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt

Bake the puddings for 15 - 20 minutes at 190 degrees, test with a skewer.
