EASY APPLE COBBLER RECIPE

I really enjoy cobbler year round. This easy apple cobbler can really be switched up and made with your favorite fruits. It is so flavorful and unique thanks to the muffin mix topping!

TIPS FOR MAKING THIS COBBLER:

You don't have to use the Martha White brand muffin mix. You can use any brand of apple muffin mix.
The cranberries and pecans are optional in this. Try switching it up with raisins and walnuts!
I'm using large Granny Smith apples here so each large apple yielded about 1 cup chopped. But if yours are smaller, you'll need to have more to get up to 5 cups needed for this recipe.
Try serving this with a drizzle of SALTED CARAMEL. It just takes the flavor to another level!

Drop cobbler topping by the tablespoonful over apple mixture. Do your best to dot it evenly all over. But don't worry, it will spread out while baking.
