Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes
Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

  • ⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¾ cup whole milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1½ cups granulated sugar
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour

  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • 1½ cups hot water

Topping:

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish and spread evenly.
  2. Make the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, vanilla extract, and granulated sugar. Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Whisk until just combined—do not overmix.

  4. Add hot water: Carefully pour the hot water over the top of the batter and brown sugar. Again, do not stir.
  5. Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and mostly set.
  6. Add topping: While the cobbler is hot, mix together the topping sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and sprinkle it evenly over the surface.
  7. Cool and serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Best enjoyed warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Notes

  • Serving Tip: Serve warm for the best gooey texture. Add vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
  • Storage: Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Freezing: Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
