- 1 cup all-purpose flour

- ¾ cup granulated sugar
Supporting Dry Ingredients:
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Supporting Wet Ingredients:
- ½ cup whole milk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F and coat an 8×8-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter.
- Combine 1 cup flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt in a mixing bowl.
- Pour ½ cup milk, 4 tablespoons melted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract into the dry ingredients. Whisk until your batter becomes completely smooth.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly across the surface.
- Mix ½ cup brown sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon in a separate small bowl.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture uniformly over the top of your batter.
- Carefully pour 1 ½ cups hot water across the entire surface of the cobbler. Do not mix or stir the layers.
- Slide the dish into the preheated 350F oven and bake for 40-45 minutes until the top turns golden brown.
- Remove the cobbler and let it rest for 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to slightly thicken.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of heavy cream.
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients to ensure smooth, even mixing of the cobbler batter.
- Add a pinch of nutmeg to the cinnamon-sugar topping for extra depth of flavor and warmth.
- For a gluten-free version, swap the all-purpose flour with a cup-for-cup gluten-free baking blend.
- Serve this dessert immediately after cooling to enjoy the perfect balance of crisp top and gooey sauce.
