Easy Apple Cobbler Recipe (5 Ingredients)
Equipment
- skillet
- oven
Ingredients
- 2 21 oz cans apple pie filling or topping
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon or apple pie spice
- 1 (16.3 oz can refrigerated biscuits, cut each into fourths or quarters
- your favorite caramel sauce to drizzle
- coarse sea salt to sprinkle
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a large cast iron skillet or large rectangular baking dish (13 x 9-inch) with unsalted butter; set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix the apple pie filling with the cinnamon or apple pie spice. If you would like, you can mix in one teaspoon of fresh lemon/lime juice -- but only if you are not using a cast iron skillet.
- Then, gently mix in the pieces of biscuits. Pour mixture into the prepared skillet or baking dish, making sure to arrange everything into a single layer in such a way that biscuits will have space to rise. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until biscuits are puffed, golden brown, and fully cooked.
- Remove skillet/baking dish from oven, drizzle with caramel sauce, and sprinkle a bit of coarse sea salt on top. Serve Salted Caramel Apple Pie Cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes
- Let it rest before serving: Give the cobbler about 5–10 minutes after baking. The filling will be extremely hot straight from the oven and will settle slightly as it rests.
- For neat servings: Use a large serving spoon rather than trying to cut the cobbler into squares. Make sure each portion gets both apples and biscuit pieces.
- Adjust the salted finish to taste: If your caramel sauce is already salted, taste it first and use little or no additional coarse sea salt.
- Serving temperature matters: This cobbler is best warm rather than piping hot—the apple filling thickens slightly and the flavors are easier to appreciate after a short rest.
- Using a glass baking dish: Avoid placing a cold glass dish directly into a hot oven. Let the dish come closer to room temperature first to reduce the risk of thermal shock.
