Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 4 tablespoons (2 fluid ounces) unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 cup boiling water
Leavening and Seasoning:
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the baking environment by heating the oven to 350F (175C) and coating a 9×9-inch baking dish with a light layer of grease to prevent sticking.
- Create a smooth batter by whisking flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar together in a medium mixing bowl, then gently incorporating milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter until just combined, ensuring no overmixing occurs.
- Craft a rich cinnamon-sugar mixture by blending brown sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl, then generously distributing this aromatic blend across the surface of the prepared batter.
- Develop a complementary topping by combining additional sugar and cinnamon, sprinkling the mixture evenly over the cobbler to create a delectable crust.
- Introduce boiling water carefully across the entire cobbler surface without stirring, allowing the liquid to settle and create a luscious caramel-like sauce during the baking process.
- Bake the cobbler in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, watching for a golden-brown top and bubbling edges that indicate the dessert is perfectly cooked.
- Allow the cobbler to rest and slightly cool for a few minutes after removing from the oven, then serve warm accompanied by a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an indulgent finish.
Notes
- Gluten-Free Swap: Replace all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend to make this dessert suitable for those with wheat sensitivities, ensuring everyone can enjoy the sweet cinnamon goodness.
- Precise Baking Tip: Use room temperature milk and melted butter for smoother batter incorporation, which helps create a more consistent texture and prevents lumpy spots.
- Water Pouring Technique: When adding boiling water, pour slowly and evenly across the surface to help create a uniform caramel-like sauce without disturbing the batter’s structure.
- Serving Suggestion: For an extra decadent experience, drizzle warm caramel sauce or sprinkle chopped pecans over the cobbler just before serving to add depth and crunch.
