What is the difference between apple crisp and apple cobbler?
Both apple crisp and apple cobbler are baked fruit desserts. The main difference between the two is the crispiness of their topping. Apple crisp usually has a topping made of oats, flour, butter, and sugar; sometimes nuts are also added to the mix. While an apple cobbler has a biscuit-style topping - no oats, just flour, butter, and sugar.
You can prepare the apple filling up to 3 days before baking your apple cobblers, keep in a fridge or freeze it for up to 3 months.
If you make one too many and have some leftovers, you can also freeze baked apple cobblers for up to 3 months. Simply cover them tightly with foil and plastic wrap (or put them in a freezer bag). When you feel like having one, remember that you'll need to thaw them overnight in the fridge. Then warm them in an oven that was preheated to 350°F.
