Ingredients

Scale

Base Batter

  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 3/4 cup whole milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Topping and Sauce

  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 1/2 cups hot water
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the melted butter evenly across the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking pan to create a rich base for the cobbler.
  2. Mix the Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the whole milk, vanilla extract, and 1 1/2 cups sugar until combined. Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon, whisking gently until just combined to avoid overmixing, which keeps the cobbler tender.
  3. Layer Batter: Spoon the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking pan, being careful not to stir or mix it into the butter layer beneath.
  4. Add Brown Sugar: Sprinkle the packed brown sugar evenly over the surface of the batter to add sweetness and caramelization.
  5. Pour Hot Water: Gently pour 1 1/2 cups of hot water over the batter and brown sugar layer. This will create a syrup as it bakes, giving the cobbler its signature gooey texture.
  6. Bake the Cobbler: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and mostly set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  7. Add Cinnamon Sugar Topping: While the cobbler is hot, mix the 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon together. Sprinkle this cinnamon sugar evenly over the top for an extra layer of snickerdoodle flavor and a slight crunch.
  8. Cool and Serve: Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving to allow the layers to set and flavors to meld. Serve warm for the best experience.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use half-and-half instead of whole milk.
  • Ensure the water is hot when pouring over the batter to help create the syrup layer.
  • This cobbler is delicious served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
  • Do not mix the batter once it’s in the pan to maintain the layered texture.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and gently reheated before serving.
