Baking and Serving:

- Bake the Cobbler: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the apple cobbler from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and the cobbler to set slightly.
- Enjoy: Serve the apple cobbler warm, either on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
Serving Suggestions
Apple cobbler is delicious on its own but can be served with a variety of toppings to enhance its flavor. Consider serving it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a dollop of whipped cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra special treat.
