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 the oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the melted butter into a 9×13-inch baking pan, ensuring it covers the bottom evenly.
- Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, vanilla extract, and sugar. Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon, whisking until just combined.
- Assemble the cobbler: Spoon the batter evenly over the melted butter without mixing. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the batter. Carefully pour the hot water over the entire mixture—do not stir.
- Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the top is golden brown and mostly set.
- Add the topping: In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle over the hot cobbler right after baking.
- Cool and serve: Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Best enjoyed warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
Notes
- Ensure not to stir after pouring the hot water; this helps achieve the traditional cobbler texture with layers.
- This cobbler is best served warm, especially with vanilla ice cream for added creaminess.
- Use freshly ground cinnamon for more intense flavor in both the batter and topping.
- You can substitute whole milk with 2% milk if preferred, but whole milk yields richer results.
- To speed cooling, after baking, place the pan on a wire rack to allow airflow underneath.
