Ingredients
Scale
For the Cobbler Batter:
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Cinnamon-Sugar Topping:
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 ½ cups hot water
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prepare
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Pour the melted butter into a 9×9-inch or 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 2: Make the Batter
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until smooth (don’t overmix).
- Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter. Do not stir.
Step 3: Add the Cinnamon-Sugar Topping
- In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the batter.
- Carefully pour the hot water over the top. Do not stir—this creates a gooey, caramel-like layer as it bakes!
Step 4: Bake & Serve
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
- Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
Don’t Stir the Layers – Letting the batter, sugar, and hot water layer naturally creates the best texture.
Use Fresh Cinnamon – For the most aromatic, warm flavor.
Serve Warm – The gooey, cinnamon-buttery sauce is best right out of the oven!
