The apples are cooked until they are soft and the syrup is lightly sweetened with a hint of cinnamon. The biscuit topping is light and fluffy and adds a nice contrast to the warm apples. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or just a delicious treat.

Ingredients

For the apples:

  • 4 apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

For the topping:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9x9 inch baking dish with butter.

In a large bowl, combine the apples, water, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Toss to combine, then add the cornstarch and mix until the apples are evenly coated. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the butter and use a pastry blender or your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the cream and cinnamon until just combined.

Sprinkle the topping over the apples. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the apples are tender. Serve warm or at room temperature.
