Apple Cobbler Biscuit topper:
1 cup whole flour
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup melted margarine
1 medium egg
1/4 cup milk
Prepare this while the apples are cooking. First get out a medium sized
bowl. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in the bowl. Add the
margarine, egg and milk. Mix very well, forming a soft dough, or thick batter.
Set aside.
Apples:
6 cups peeled, cored and sliced apples
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon ginger or cinnamon
1 1/4 cups tap water
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons margarine
Get out a large saucepan. In it combine the brown sugar, cornstarch and
ginger. Gradually add the tap water, stirring to dissolve the cornstarch. Add
the raisins. Cook and stir until the mixture is boiling. Add the apples, lemon
juice and margarine. Continue cooking until the apples are very hot and begin
to soften some. Don't over cook though, or the apples will turn to mushy
applesauce. A full five minutes of cooking the apples should be enough. While
everything is cooking, you can prepare the biscuit topper recipe above. Turn
the apple mixture into a well oiled 2 quart casserole dish, or an 8" square
pan. Drop the prepared biscuit dough onto the very hot apple mixture by large
spoonfuls. The apple mixture has to be very hot so that the biscuit dough will
start cooking right away. If the apple mixture is cold, it will make the
cobbler dough pasty. Bake the cobbler at 425° for about 25 minutes. The
biscuit topper will be golden brown and the apple filling
will be bubbling. If you want to be fancy you can sprinkle a spoonful of
sugar over top of the cobbler dough right before putting it into the oven. It
makes the dish sort of pretty when it comes out of the oven. Serve it hot with
whipped topping or ice cream for an extravagant dessert. Serves 6.
