This is the perfect season to bake up a great fall apple cobbler recipe! This French Apple Cobbler recipe is not only delicious, but it is much easier to make than it looks. It ranks right up there with our fried caramel apple slices and cinnamon roll skillet cake.
This recipe is so good—it’s probably my favorite fall dessert. Just serve our maple-bacon pumpkin pancakes for breakfast & this french apple cobbler after dinner, and you’re all set!This week, our oldest son asked if we could make this apple cobbler recipe again & of course, I said yes. Our entire family loves it! It’s easy to make, is ready in about 40 minutes, and is delicious! It’s the perfect dessert to serve warm on a chilly fall day (although eating it cold works, too!)
This apple cobbler is great at any time of the year, but baked apples in the fall are pretty perfect. If you like to go apple picking for fresh apples- even better.
You don’t need a lot of ingredients to create this recipe… although you might want to pick up some vanilla ice cream to make it even more delicious! Use the leftover ice cream to make some fried ice cream!
