Apple Cobbler in the Crockpot with Sourdough Topping
This delicious and flavorful apple cobbler is made in the crockpot with a healthy sourdough topping
Ingredients
- 5-6 cups sliced apples
- 2/3 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons tapioca granules or cornstarch (add more if using frozen apples
- Sourdough topping:
- 1 1/2 cups unbleached white flour
- 1/2 cup wheat flour
- 1/4 cup unrefined sugar or brown sugar
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 cup sourdough starter (I used fed starter) but I think discard will work!)
- 1/2 cup melted coconut oil or butter
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Additional 1 tablespoon sugar for sprinkling on top of biscuits
- 1/4 cup water (omit if using frozen apples)
Instructions
- Peel and slice the apples
- Place the apples inside the crockpot
- Add cinnamon, nutmeg, tapioca granules, and sweetener
- Stir it together well
- Melt the coconut oil or butter
- Mix the topping ingredients all together
- Use your hands and make little ball with the dough. Pat in your hands and place in crockpot on top of apples
- Sprinkle with 1-2 Tablespoons of brown sugar if desired
- Cook on high for up to 4 hours or on low for up to 8 hours. Do not over cook. If excess moisture is congregating inside the crockpot, then slant the lid for a little while.
- Serve with any of my serving suggestions above. Enjoy!
Notes
Canned apple pie filling can be used in place of using fresh apples. I have also used homemade peach pie filling in this recipe.
Brown sugar can be replaced for the sweetener if you prefer.
