This is a great recipe. I used a large cortland apple. Instead of the apple pie spice I used cinnamon. I ate one and my son asked me what I was eating and he wanted the other one. So I'll have to do it again LOL thanks Paula :) Made for the Australian Recipe Swap October 2010

To me with lots of cobbler/crisp experience I felt what made this recipe was using recipe#145505 as the orange zest set this apart! I made ours gluten free by using a mix of white rice flour and half the amount of tapioca starch. I doubled the recipe and put it in one custard pan. I had to use some canola oil along with the butter as I didn't have enough, that worked OK. I may make this again always using recipe#145505. Made for RECIPE SWAP #45 - October 2010.

This doesn't seem like a recipe where much can go wrong, but we thought the cobbler was too sweet and too dry. I had higher hopes because PaulaG's recipes are always delicious. Sorry-maybe the problems lie with my preparation technique, but in the future I think I'll stick to making apple cobbler the old-fashioned way rather than this short-cut version.

My husband really liked this! I had to re-do the topping because I added too much butter the first time (used the full 2 tbsp of Blue Bonnet light margarine; it was all I had!). Next time I used about 1 tbsp (heaping) & it seemed to work fine. I used Splenda brown sugar but otherwise stuck to the recipe. Topped w/ some fat free whipped cream & it made a great presentation! Thank u for sharing.

Delish! This is just perfect for when you want something sweet, yet fairly healthy and you want it quick! We're watching our weight, so it's nice to not have extra helpings around to tempt us and this was the right amount to satisfy us. The topping came out slightly crunchy and flavored the apples so nicely. I did add a pinch of nutmeg to the topping mix just because I love the flavor. Thanks Paula for another winner!
