Ingredients

Filling

5 Apples thinly sliced

Syrup

1 cup Water boiling
2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 cup Rice Milk
4 tbsp Margarine
1/2 tsp Salt

Topping

2 1/2 tbsp Margarine
2 tbsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Topping: Melt 2 1/2 tbsp margarine in the microwave. Stir in 2 tbsp sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Syrup: In a saucepan, combine 1 cup boiling water, 2 tsp baking powder, 1/2 cup rice milk, 4 tbsp margarine, and 1/2 tsp salt. Boil together until a runny syrup forms.
  3. Filling: Preheat your oven to 200°C. Place 5 thinly sliced apples into a greased 20 x 20 cm ovenproof dish.
  4. Pour the hot syrup evenly over the apples.
  5. Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a mixing bowl. Rub in the margarine until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  6. Stir in rice milk to form a soft dough.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of the dough evenly over the apples.
  8. Drizzle the prepared topping over the dough.
  9. Bake for 35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.

Hints & Tips

  • Choose the right apples – Firm, slightly tart apples like Granny Smith or Braeburn hold their shape and balance the sweetness.
  • Serve warm – This cobbler tastes best served hot or warm, ideally with dairy-free ice cream or whipped cream.
  • Adjust sweetness – If your apples are very sweet, reduce the sugar slightly in the topping.
  • Prevent soggy topping – Bake on the centre rack so the crust cooks evenly and stays crisp.
  • Add extra spice – A pinch of nutmeg or allspice in the filling will enhance the warm, comforting flavour.
