Ingredients
For the cobbler base:
- 1 1/2 cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 cup (180 ml) whole milk
- 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter, melted
For the topping:
- 1 cup (200 g) brown sugar, packed
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
For the sauce:
- 1 1/2 cups (360 ml) hot water
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
2. Make the cobbler batter
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder.
- Stir in the milk and melted butter until just combined. The batter will be thick.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
3. Prepare the topping
- In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon until well combined.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the batter.
4. Add the hot water
- Slowly pour the hot water over the entire dish, ensuring it covers the surface evenly. Do not stir. The water will create a gooey sauce as the cobbler bakes.
5. Bake the cobbler
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbly.
6. Serve
- Let the cobbler cool for about 10 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for the ultimate dessert experience.
Notes
- Extra flavor: Add a pinch of nutmeg or a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter for extra depth.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven before serving.
- Make-ahead: While best served fresh, you can prepare the batter and topping in advance. Add the hot water and bake just before serving.
