It’s an apple dessert that your guests are going to fall in love with. Warm, perfectly sweet, juicy, golden brown apple cobbler perfection. Just in case you need more Fall desserts that you can make with fresh apples I know you’ll also love these Apple Pie Cookies, Apple Pie Bars, and this Apple Galette. I’ve made many versions of apple cobbler in my baking lifetime and I’m telling you this version with the yellow cake mix, pomegranate juice reduction and juicy apple pie filling is just everything.
Apples: I love using Granny Smith apples in this recipe because they are tart apples and hold their shape well. Pomegranate Juice: Instead of using lemon juice, this recipe uses a pomegranate juice reduction (don’t worry it’s soooo easy to make, I’ll get into that more down below). I compliments the apple filling nicely. Yellow Cake Mix: I love using cake mix as kind of a short-cut topping. It’s not overly cakey or too tough and biscuit-y either, it’s the right amount of sweetness too. Combined with some old-fashioned oats, it makes the perfect cobbler topping. Unsalted butter: You’ll need a pastry cutting or two knives to cut the cold butter into the cobbler topping. Old Fashioned Oats: The oatmeal helps to give the topping a yummy, crispy, crunchy texture. Other ingredients needed: sugar, heavy cream, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
