Ingredients
For the Apple Filling
5 cups Granny Smith apples peeled and sliced thin
½ lemon juiced
1 cup sugar
Pinch of salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/16 tsp ground cloves
1/16 tsp ground nutmeg
½ cup water
2 tbsp cornstarch + 3 tbsp water for slurry

1 21 oz can of apple pie filling
For the Batter
½ tsp salt
½ tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup sugar
8 tbsp butter cold
1 tbsp baking powder
1 ½ cups 1.1 GF Flour
¾ cup buttermilk
1 cup pecans chopped
Topping
½ cup caramel sauce
Instructions
Prepare the Apple Filling
In a large stockpot, combine the sliced apples, lemon juice, sugar, salt, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and water.
Cook over low to medium heat for about 15 minutes until the apples are tender.
In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and 3 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Add the slurry to the apple mixture, stirring well.
Continue cooking until the filling thickens, similar to apple pie filling.
Prepare the Batter
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
In a mixing bowl, combine the salt, cinnamon, sugar, baking powder, and flour.
Cut in the cold butter using a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the buttermilk and vanilla extract until just combined.
Assemble and Bake
Spread the apple pie filling evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the apple filling, covering the surface.
Sprinkle chopped pecans on top.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and immediately drizzle the caramel sauce over the cobbler.
Serve
Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired!

Commonly Asked Questions
How should I store the caramel apple cobbler?
Store any leftover cobbler in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep well for about 3 to 4 days. For best results, cover it with plastic wrap or foil to prevent it from drying out.
Can I freeze the caramel apple pie cobbler?
Yes, you can freeze the cobbler! After it’s completely cooled, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil. It will stay fresh in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat, let it thaw in the refrigerator overnight, then bake it at a low temperature until warmed through.
How do I reheat the cobbler?
To reheat, simply place the cobbler in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until it’s heated through. If you’re reheating individual portions, a few minutes in the microwave will also work.
Can I use a different type of apple?
Absolutely! While Granny Smith apples are great for their tart flavor, you can use other types of apples like Honeycrisp or Fuji. Just make sure they are firm enough to hold up during baking.
What if I don’t have pecans?
If you’re not a fan of pecans or don’t have any on hand, feel free to substitute with another type of nut, like walnuts, or simply leave them out. The cobbler will still be delicious!
Can I make the cobbler ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the apple filling and batter in advance. Just keep them separate in the refrigerator until you’re ready to assemble and bake. This is a great way to save time if you’re hosting a gathering or want a quick dessert.
