DIRECTIONS:
01. Wash your apples with vinegar solution really well.
02. Peel 4 apples, leave 2 apples unpeeled.
03. Thinly slice your apples vertically in 1 inch length slices, thin slices.
04. Once you have cut all your apples, place them in a deep pan, like boiling potatoes.
05. Turn your oven on at 350 degrees, place the butter inside the pan and place inside the oven to melt and let butter melt to a medium gold brownish, do not burn the butter.
06. You will now sauté your apples at medium fire, in the lemon juice, cinnamon and sugar, when all ingredients become one, turn heat off and let rest, while you make batter.
07. Now let’s mix the dry ingredients in a round glass or plastic semi deep bowl
08. Pour the flour.
09. Add the baking powder.
10. Add the salt.
11. Add the sugar.
12. Mix your dry ingredients well by hand using a fork or handheld mixer.
13. Once your dry ingredients are well incorporated, you can now add your wet ingredients.
14. Now, add the egg.
15. Add the milk.
16. Mix all ingredient by hand for about 3 minutes.
17. By now your oven should be ready and the butter is completely melted.
18. Wear heat resisted gloves to take the butter pan out, let it rest for a minute.
19. Now let’s assemble our cobbler!
20. Pour your cake batter into the center of the buttered pan, do not mix, do not spread, do not touch the batter at this point.
21. With a large spoon, begin by spreading your sautéd apple mix in the middle on top of batter, to do not touch, simply pour little by little your apples all around the batter, covering the batter in apples. Do not get templed to fix your apples, what makes a cobbler so unique is the way the ingredient are poured.
22. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. I usually let it bake till the edges and batter are nice and golden.
23. After cake is completely baked, make sure to let the cake rest and cool down before cutting.
24. Enjoy your cake with cup of coffee to hot tea. It is delicious! Bon appetite!
