Ingredients

• 5 medium Apples (e.g., Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar substitute (e.g., erythritol or monk fruit sweetener)
• 0.75 cup Whole-wheat flour
• 0.5 cup Oats (old-fashioned or quick-cooking)
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or skim milk)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0 Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat a 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Place the apple slices in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Add lemon juice, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar substitute to the apples. Toss to coat evenly, then spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, mix together the whole-wheat flour, oats, baking powder, salt, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar substitute.

Step 5

In another small bowl or measuring cup, mix the almond milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 6

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter should be slightly thick but spreadable.

Step 7

Spoon the batter evenly over the apples, gently spreading it out to cover most of the apple mixture.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the cobbler cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy on its own or with a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream or a small scoop of low-sugar vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
