Description

This Vegan Apple Cobbler is a warm, comforting dessert perfect for cozy fall evenings. Made with tender apple slices spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg, and topped with a light, fluffy biscuit-like batter, it’s baked to golden perfection using vegan butter and oat milk. Served warm with vegan vanilla ice cream, this cobbler offers a delightful plant-based treat that’s both easy to make and full of homestyle charm.

Ingredients

Scale

Cobbler Batter

  • ½ cup (1 stick) vegan butter
  • 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup oat milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Apple Filling

  • 12 oz (340g) apples, cut into ¼” slices
  • ¼ cup (50g) brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

Serving

  • Vegan vanilla ice cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375ºF (190ºC) to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking the cobbler.
  2. Melt the vegan butter: Cut the vegan butter into cubes and place them in a 9×9 inch baking dish. Put the dish in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes, or until the butter has completely melted to create a flavorful base for your cobbler.
  3. Prepare the apple filling: In a medium bowl, toss the apple slices with brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using). Mix well so the apples are evenly coated with the spices and sugar, then set aside to let the flavors meld.
  4. Make the batter: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the oat milk and vanilla extract, stirring just until combined; it’s okay if the batter has a few lumps.
  5. Assemble the cobbler: Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish, then arrange the spiced apple slices on top. Pour any leftover juices from the bowl over the apples to enhance flavor and moisture.
  6. Bake: Place the cobbler in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean.
  7. Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly. Serve warm with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream for a delicious and comforting dessert experience.

Notes

  • Vegan Butter: Used melted at the bottom of the baking dish to prevent sticking and provide a rich, golden base. Alternatives include vegetable, avocado, or coconut oil.
  • Baking Powder: Essential for the batter’s rise; do not substitute with baking soda as they are not interchangeable.
  • All-Purpose Flour: Recommended for this recipe; gluten-free alternatives require recipe adjustments.
  • Sugar: Both granulated and brown sugars are used; for vegan compliance, use organic granulated sugar.
  • Non-Dairy Milk: Unsweetened oat milk is preferred for creaminess, but coconut, soy, or cashew milk work well.
  • Apples: Can be peeled or unpeeled based on preference; unpeeled maintains antioxidants and softens during baking.
  • Spices: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla bring warm, cozy flavors reminiscent of fall.
  • Salt: A pinch balances the sweetness and enhances flavor complexity.
