Apples are a fruit that can be purchased any time of the year at the grocery store. Right now is apple season, so you will probably be able to find a few extra varieties. It is a time to harvest, so why not help an apple grower by picking your own! Once you have an abundance of apples, you are going to need some delicious recipes to make and to help you out here is one for an easy snickerdoodle apple cobbler.
What is a Snickerdoodle?
A snickerdoodle is similar to a sugar cookie, but instead of just sugar, it is mixed with cinnamon. It is known for its cracked texture and soft and chewy inside. This cookie flavour has been reconstructed into drinks, desserts, and more. Who doesn’t love a hint of cinnamon?
What is an Apple Cobbler?
There are so many types of baked apple desserts. Pies have a crust on the bottom and usually on top of the fruit. Crisps or crumbles have the fruit on the bottom and a crispy crumble on top. So what exactly is an apple cobbler? It is a deep-dished baked dessert with apples and a thick biscuit or pie dough topping. It is believed that the name came from the topping looking like cobblestone.
How to store the Snickerdoodle Apple Cobbler
Store the snickerdoodle apple cobbler in refrigerator loosely covered for up to 3 days or in an airtight container in the freezer for 1 month, but it might be soggy when you defrost it.
