Ingredients
- 4 cups cored and sliced Granny Smith apples roughly four medium sized apples
- 1/4 lemon juice
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 (15.25 ounce) box butter flavored cake mix
- 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the apples with the lemon juice, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.
- Transfer the apples to an 8 x 8 inch baking pan. Sprinkle the cake mix evenly over the top of the apples.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the cake mix. Carefully stir the butter around to make sure all the cake mix is coated with the butter. If the dish seems a little full, don’t worry. The apples will cook down and the cake mix will not rise during baking.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes until the crust is golden brown. Allow the cobbler to sit for about 10 minutes before serving.
- Serve the cobbler hot with ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes
Storage. Cover the cobbler or transfer it to a container with a lid within two hours of baking. Eat within five days.
Freezing. This cobbler can be frozen baked or unbaked. If freezing unbaked, follow the recipe through adding the cake mix. Skip the melted butter for now. Cover with foil and freeze for up the three months. Allow the cobbler to thaw completely in the refrigerator. Then add the melted butter and follow the directions as instructed.
Allow a baked cobbler to cool completely, then cover with foil and freeze for up to three months. Please keep in mind that freezing a cobbler - either baked or unbaked — will slightly change the texture of the apples.
Reheating. Individual servings can be reheated for 1-2 minutes in the microwave, or baked for 10 minutes at 350 until heated through.
For a whole cobbler, let it stand at room temperature for about 15 minutes to take the chill off. Then bake at 350 degrees for approximately 20-30 minutes until the filling is heated through and the crust is crisp again.
