The Perfect Apple Honey Cobbler

Hi Bold Bakers! Is it getting a little chillier by you? I’m not quite ready to let summer go, but there’s something so beautiful about fall. It’s probably all the delicious desserts you can make with apples. Already have an account? A warm taste of tart apples and sweet honey with just a little hint of cinnamon, it’s a perfect fall treat. The cobbler topping is like a sweet, crumbly, buttery biscuit that melts in your mouth. It’s simple to make, fills the house with wonderful smells, and warms your soul with delicious goodness. This is also a very popular dessert around Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year — apples and honey play a key part in families’ celebrations. It’s traditional to eat sweet foods, starting with challah then a slice of apple dipped in honey, to symbolize a desire for a good, sweet year.

Gemma’s Pro Chef Tips For Making Apple & Honey Cobbler

Depending on where you live the time of year, you may have access to many varieties of tart apples. If nothing else, Granny Smiths are always a good option and fairly easy to find. To make this extra special, serve this with my easy homemade vanilla ice cream or caramel gelato. The filling and topping can be made a few hours in advance and kept in the refrigerator separately until closer to when you want to eat it. This way it can be made and served hot from the oven without much fuss! For a delicious variation, try adding 1 cup (5oz/142g) of a berry of your choice to the filling. I like just a hint of cinnamon in my filling, but a ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg, ginger, or cardamom can be nice if you want to spice things up.

How Do I Store Apple & Honey Cobbler?

Apple and honey cobbler is best the day it is made but you can store any covered leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one day. To serve, reheat in a 250°F (120°C) oven.
