FAQ's
The average large baking apple weighs 130-160 g or about 5.6 oz. per apple. This apple cobbler cake recipe calls for 6 large baking apples such as Granny Smith. This means the total weight before peeling, coring and slicing will be about 2.5 pounds (1133 g). After peeling, coring and slicing, the total weight will be about 2 pounds (906 g) sliced apples. Is apple cobbler the same as apple dump cake? The terms are used interchangeably when cake mix is used to make them. Both are made using fruit with some kind of cake or biscuit-like topping. A cobbler has more of a biscuit shaped cake topping and a dump cake has more of a crust. Why is the apple cobbler soggy? This can be caused by too much liquid in the apples or by not letting the cobbler cool long enough to thicken. By using some cornstarch and allowing the cake mix cobbler to cool this shouldn’t be an issue for this recipe. How thick should I cut the apples for apple cobbler? You don’t want to cut the apples too thick or too thin. A good guide is to cut apples to the same thickness as when baking an apple pie or an apple crisp. For this apple cobbler from cake mix recipe, I recommend slicing the apples into ¼-in (½-cm) thick slices. Other Apple Recipes to Try
