Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Toss the stem ginger, vanilla, spices, sugar, apples, flour and lemon juice together in a large bowl until well combined. Tip into a shallow, wide casserole or baking dish. Dot the butter over the top and bake for 10-15 mins until softened.
step 2
To make the cobbler, whisk the cream and egg together, set aside. Tip the flour, baking powder and butter into a bowl. Rub the mixture together using your hands until you have a mixture of fine and chunky pieces. Stir in the salt, polenta and caster sugar. Pour in the egg mixture and combine into a sticky dough.
step 3
Remove the pan of fruit from the oven and spoon over large spoonfuls of the cobbler batter. Sprinkle over the demerara sugar and bake for 25-30 mins until golden and crispy on top, and cooked through. Cool for 5 mins before serving with vanilla ice cream or cold double cream.
