Caramel apple cobbler is a delicious apple dessert that's perfect for any day! This easy apple cobbler is made with fresh crisp apples cooked in a tasty caramel sauce.

What makes this caramel apple cobbler a winner?

This caramel apple cobbler is special because simplicity of the caramel in it. Very little butter is used in the caramel sauce which makes it lighter than other recipes. And, it takes less than 10 minutes to make it. I love our chewy caramel recipe, but if I’m making a caramel sauce for apple cobbler, this sauce would be the one.

Then comes the topping, I used Greek yogurt to make the topping because it gives a nice cake-y texture and doesn’t leave it dry. I also used only 2 tablespoons of butter in the topping which makes it light and tasty.

This caramel apple cobbler is a celebration of apple, cinnamon and caramel that leaves you with nothing but pure satisfaction.

easy apple cobbler is perfect for fall evenings.

Ingredients for this apple cobbler recipe

To make homemade apple cobbler you need:

  • Apples
  • Brown sugar
  • Flour
  • Butter
  • Cinnamon
  • Greek Yogurt

I like using a mix of apples to make this easy apple cobbler but if you would like to use only one type of apple, you can use granny smith apples since their sweet and sour flavor goes perfectly with the caramel filling.

homemade apple cobbler ingredients are apples, brown sugar, yogurt, butter and flour.

How to make apple cobbler from scratch

Start by slicing the apples and set them aside. I usually slice the apples with the skin on but you can peel them if desired. Mix brown sugar, flour, butter, water and cinnamon in a sauce pan and place over medium heat and cook until thickened.

Place the apples in an oven safe dish and pour the caramel sauce over the apples. Mix using a spatula or a wooden spoon.

In another bowl, mix flour, salt, butter and Greek yogurt to make a thick batter. Spoon this thick batter over the apples and bake in the oven until the apples are cooked and bubbling and the top is golden brown.

How to make apple cobbler: slice apples, make the caramel sauce and mix it with apples. Mix the topping ingredients and spread over the apples. Bake for 30 minutes.

What’s the difference between apple cobbler and apple crisp?

Apple cobbler and apple crisp are both apple based desserts. However, apple cobbler has an oatmeal topping whereas apple cobbler has a cake-y topping.

Can I freeze apple cobbler?

Yes, you can. Prepare the cobbler according to the instructions but don’t bake it. Cover with aluminum foil and freeze for up to one month. Thaw in the fridge overnight and bake in the oven at 350 for 40 minutes.

Serve homemade apple cobbler with vanilla ice cream.

Notes and tips for making this caramel apple cobbler

  • You can use any kind of apples for this apple cobbler recipe. I prefer honey crisp and granny smith.
  • You can serve apple cobbler warm or at room temperature.
  • Keep the leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to three days.
  • For the topping you can also use store bought refrigerated biscuits.

vanilla ice cream goes perfectly with apple cobbler.
