Another classic....


I haven't made this one in a while, but I always get requests for the recipe when I do.


Apple Cobbler
1 1/2 cups butter
6 cups peeled and sliced tart apples (I usually use Macintosh or Granny Smith or a combination of the two.)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups + 1-2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup milk
2 eggs
3 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder

Preheat the oven to 375. Melt 1/2 cup of the butter and pour it into a 9x13 cake pan. Spread it evenly and arrange the apples over it. Mix 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/2 cup sugar and sprinkle evenly over the apples. Set aside. Melt the remaining 1 cup butter in a small pan, remove from heat, add the milk and egg, and beat well. Mix the flour, baking powder, the remining 1 cup sugar, and the remaining 1 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Stir in the milk and egg mixure and beat until smooth. Pour over the apples. Mix 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon with 1-2 tablespoons sugar and sprinkle over the top. Bake for about 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
