Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar (divided)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups hot water
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cobbler.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, 3/4 cup of the granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt; mix well to ensure even distribution.
- Add wet ingredients: Stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until a smooth batter forms without lumps.
- Pour batter into dish: Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish and pour the batter evenly into it.
- Prepare sugar topping: In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon to create a fragrant cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Sprinkle topping: Evenly distribute the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the surface of the batter; do not stir it in.
- Add hot water: Carefully pour the hot water over the entire dish without mixing, allowing it to seep through the batter and sugars.
- Bake the cobbler: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the top is golden and bubbly and the center is set.
- Cool and serve: Let the cobbler cool slightly so it thickens a bit, then serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
Notes
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic cobbler experience.
- For extra cinnamon flavor, sprinkle more cinnamon over the top before baking.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the microwave for convenience.
