Apple Walnut Cobbler

Here's a cobbler recipe that is easy and delicious. Apples are so plentiful here in the Northwest, and we love them. This cobbler has a cake-like topping, as opposed to a pie crust style. This recipe came from Cooking Light magazine originally.

Apple Walnut Cobbler

5 cups thinly sliced, peeled tart apples
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 beaten egg
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/3 cup butter, melted


Spread the apples in a lightly-greased 2-quart square baking dish. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the walnuts, the 1/4 cup sugar, and the cinnamon. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together flour, the 1/2 cup sugar, and baking powder.

In a small bowl, combine the egg, evaporated milk, and melted butter. Stir the egg mixture into dry ingredients until smooth. Pour evenly over apples; sprinkle with remaining walnuts.

Bake in 325 degree oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Serve cobbler warm, cut into squares. If desired, serve with ice cream or whipped cream. Makes 9 servings.

DONNA'S NOTES: Chop the walnuts very fine, unless you really like lots of chunks. I recommend mixing the apples, walnuts, sugar, and cinnamon together, either in a bowl or in the baking dish. I think it distributes the flavors better.
