This is one of my husband’s favorite cakes. The original version used flour and I adapt it for Passover using potato starch. My husband ironically prefers the Kosher for Passover version more. So, now I make the Kosher for Passover version all year ’round.
CHAYA’S APPLE COBBLER
Ingredients
Peel and dice enough apples to fill a 9X9 or an 8X8 inch square pan.
1 cup flour. For Passover, I use ½ cup potato starch. Matza meal would also work.
½ cup sugar
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/3 cup oil
Optional: ½ teaspoon of cinnamon
Instructions:
Peel and remove core of apples. Slice or chop as desired. Place into parchment lined 8X8 or 9X9 pan. My family likes them in circles or semi circles rather than diced.
Mix the ingredients for the dough. Mix by hand or with a hand blender the oil, sugar, vanilla, egg. Sift together the dry ingredients and mix into batter. Spread over apples. Bake at 350*F for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
Optional: I have sometimes sprinkled cinnamon or a bit of lemon juice over the apples before pouring the dough on top.
The recipe above can be easily doubled and baked in a 9X13 pan. I have looked all over for where this recipe came from, and I cannot find the source. If anyone knows, please let me know.
