Ingredients
  

For The Batter:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For The Topping:

  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups hot water

Instructions
 

Step 1: Preheat And Prep

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Mix The Batter

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until combined, then pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.

Step 3: Add The Topping

  • In a separate bowl, mix the brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Evenly sprinkle this mixture over the batter.

Step 4: Pour The Hot Water

  • Carefully pour the hot water over the entire dish—do not stir. This step helps create the gooey cobbler texture as it bakes.

Step 5: Bake

  • Place the dish in the oven and bake for 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and set. The cobbler will be soft underneath, with a caramel-like sauce forming at the bottom.

Step 6: Cool And Serve

  • Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. It’s best enjoyed warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
