Not much happening in our world, I decided to bake last night. Renée gave us some organic Anna apples and I decided to turn them into something while they were still crisp and precious.
I decided to make a cobbler.
And I cobbled two recipes together, like I often do and came up with my own take. And I was an apple short and added a Cosmo from Leslie's stash.
My pals told me not to cook the apples down, that they would get too mushy, I did anyway but only for five minutes.They were fine, still super crisp.
With vanilla, lemon juice, brown sugar, molasses sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, corn starch, a bit of flour, butter and water.
I made a batter, using both all purpose flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and baking soda and cut in my frozen butter.
I used half and half instead of buttermilk and after adding it to my mixture I poured the batter over the top of my fruit.
Sprinkled a little cinnamon and sugar on top.
I did a forty minute convection bake at 375°.
The last ten minutes I put foil over the top so it wouldn't burn.
This was the best cobbler I have ever made, if I can say that with all humility.Admittedly I have not made that many but this batter rocked, so light and moist.
I hope that I can do the exact same thing again!
