Apple Biscuit-Style Cobbler
This Vegan Cobbler is hearty, filling, and best of all allergy friendly! It is free from dairy, eggs, gluten, soy, and nuts. The biscuit topping perfectly accents the apple filling, reminding me of those delicious Apple Hand Pies from McDonald’s!
Moreover, cobblers were traditionally made with a biscuit topping as discussed here.However, if you are more familiar with the dump cake versions or are wanting a cake style cobbler instead of the traditional biscuit cobbler, check out that cake style recipe here!
