What’s the Difference Between Pie and Cobbler?

The main difference between a pie and a cobbler has to do with the crusts. A pie has a top and bottom crust where a cobbler has only a top crust. The fruit is placed directly on the bottom of the dish in a cobbler. Additionally, the crust of a cobbler is more like a biscuit consistency instead of the pastry dough you will find in a pie. Cobblers can also be prepared in any dish, where a pie is presented in a pie pan.

Tips for the BEST Apple Cobbler:

A flaky crust drizzled with cinnamon sugar is perfect for entertaining. Everyone will devour it quickly and talk about it for much longer. Keep these couple of tips in mind as you prepare to wow your friends and family.

Apples: There is no need to pre-cook the apples because they will cook during the bake time. The peel does need to be removed because it will not break down during cooking. Butter: Use real butter for this recipe. Swaps are not going to give you the same delicious buttery crust and flaky texture.

Can you Make Homemade Cobbler Ahead?

Yes! You can prepare this amazing dessert up to 2 days before you plan to bake it. Loosely cover your cobbler to store it in the refrigerator. However, to freeze it you will need to tightly cover it and bake it within 5 months. For best results, poke a few holes in the top of the apple cobbler if baking it from frozen. Store the apple pie for two days at room temperature. So, if you know you will not eat it right away, loosely cover and keep it in the refrigerator instead where it will stay good for up to 5 days. To freeze, you will want to wrap it tightly and enjoy it within 3 months.
