APPLE COBBLER WITH BISCUIT DOUGH RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss together apples, brown sugar, and all-purpose flour in a large bowl. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high. Add apple mixture, and cook, stirring often, until apples are tender and syrup thickens, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir together self-rising flour and 2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar in a large bowl. Cut 1/2 cup cold butter cubes into self-rising flour mixture with a pastry blender or fork until mixture is crumbly and resembles small peas; freeze 10 minutes.
• Remove apples from heat; stir in lemon zest and juice, cinnamon, and salt. Spoon apple mixture into a lightly greased 8-inch square (2-quart) baking dish. Bake in preheated oven 15 minutes, placing a baking sheet on oven rack directly below dish to catch any drips.
• Meanwhile, make a well in center of flour mixture. Add 3/4 cup cream; stir just until dough comes together, adding additional cream up to 1 cup, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead lightly 3 or 4 times. Roll or pat dough to 3/4- to 1-inch thickness. Cut with a 2 1/2-inch round cutter; reroll scraps once, and repeat process to make 9 biscuits.
• Place biscuits on top of hot apple mixture in baking dish. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter, and brush over biscuits. Sprinkle biscuits with remaining 1 tablespoon granulated sugar. Return cobbler to oven, and bake until biscuits are golden and done, 15 to 17 minutes. Cool 30 minutes; top servings with ice cream.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Generously spray 16 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. In small bowl, mix granulated sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon.
• Separate dough into 8 biscuits. Separate each biscuit into 2 layers to make 16 biscuit rounds. Place 1 biscuit round in each sprayed muffin cup, pressing dough all the way up sides of cups. Brush insides of biscuits with melted butter; sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
• In small bowl, add apple pie filling; cut apples into 1-inch pieces with kitchen scissors. Place heaping tablespoons of apple pie filling inside biscuit cups. Cups will be full.
• In small bowl, mix Topping ingredients with fork or pastry blender until crumbly. Sprinkle over apple pie filling.
• Bake 20 to 23 minutes or until biscuits are deep golden brown and filling is bubbling. Cool 5 minutes; loosen edges with metal spatula or knife, and remove from pan to serve. Serve warm with whipped topping.
