Houston’s Walnut Apple Cobbler

1 20 oz. Can Sliced Apples
Divide into:
1 1/2 C. Apple Juice from the can of apples
1 C. Apples Drained
2 C. English Walnuts (coarsely chopped)
1 Tbsp. + 2 tsp. Cinnamon
1/8 tsp. Nutmeg
1/8 tsp. Salt
3 Tbsp. Melted Butter
1/4 C. White Corn Syrup

Cookie Topping for Cobbler

1/2 C. Flour
1/4 tsp. Baking Powder
1 Stick of Butter (chilled)
1/2 C. Brown Sugar
1 Egg Yolk
1/4 tsp. Vanilla
1/4 tsp. Salt

This is easy to blend in a food processor. Cut butter into four pieces and place in processor, add sugar, vanilla, and egg. Process until blended. Add flour, baking powder, and salt, blend dry ingredients until all is mixed well. Should form a ball very quickly. Remove from processor and place between waxed paper and chill just long enough so dough may be rolled out with out sticking to wax paper.

Spray baking pan with a oil spray and pour walnut mixture in a 8″x11.5″x2″ baking dish and cover with rolled out cookie dough topping. Bake at 375 degrees 20 – 24 minutes, top should be golden brown.

Walnut cobbler should be served hot with crust side down with a generous serving of your favorite vanilla ice cream on top.

Please note you divide the can of apples into the apples and the juice. You will have some apples left over. You also may need to add some more apple juice to this.
