microwave apple cobbler

We found this one on the net while looking for a simple, 13 year old proof dessert idea. The topping is quite like Polyfilla and a bit of a toad to spread on top of the apples but surprisingly this is one of the best apple cobblers were have eaten, microwave or conventional oven. Best to make this in a deeper rather than shallow microwave bowl since the topping is so hard to spread. Serves about 6 adults with healthy appetites (4 in our house… lol).

INGREDIENTS

  • 5 cups thinly sliced peeled tart apples
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon or cloves

TOPPING

  • 3/4 cup biscuit baking mix
  • 3 tablespoons sugar, divided
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon or cloves

DIRECTIONS

  • Place apples in a 1-1/2-qt. microwave-safe dish.
  • Combine the sugar, flour and cinnamon; sprinkle over apples and toss to coat.
  • Cover and microwave on high for 3-4 minutes or until apples are tender.
    Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the biscuit mix, 2 tablespoons sugar and milk.
  • Drop by tablespoonfuls over hot apple mixture.
  • Combine cinnamon and remaining sugar; sprinkle over topping.
  • Microwave, uncovered, for 4-6 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Serve warm.
