For the Cobbler:
- ⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ¾ cup whole milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups sugar
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 ¼ teaspoons baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 ½ cups brown sugar, packed
- 1 ½ cups hot water
For the Topping:
- ¼ cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the melted butter into a 9×13-inch baking pan, making sure the bottom is evenly coated with butter.
- Prepare the batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole milk, vanilla extract, and sugar until well combined. Then add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Whisk until just combined to form the batter.
- Assemble the cobbler: Spoon the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir or mix. Next, sprinkle the packed brown sugar evenly over the batter. Carefully pour the hot water over the entire mixture, ensuring an even layer but do not stir.
- Bake: Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. The cobbler is done when the top is golden brown and the batter is mostly set.
- Add the topping: While the cobbler is still hot, mix together the ¼ cup sugar and ½ teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle this cinnamon-sugar topping evenly over the hot cobbler.
- Cool and serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. It’s best enjoyed warm and pairs wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Make sure not to stir the batter after adding the hot water; the layers will form naturally during baking.
- For an extra special touch, serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
- You can swap whole milk for 2% milk if preferred, but whole milk gives a richer flavor.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat before serving.
