Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar (divided)
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups boiling water
Leavening and Seasoning:
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 350°F, creating an ideal baking environment for the delectable dessert.
- Blend flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a mixing vessel, creating a uniform dry mixture.
- Incorporate milk and melted butter into the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth, cohesive batter forms.
- Transfer the batter into a prepared baking dish, ensuring even distribution across the surface.
- Combine remaining sugar with ground cinnamon in a separate container, creating a fragrant topping mixture.
- Generously dust the cinnamon-sugar blend across the entire batter surface, creating a tantalizing layer.
- Gently cascade boiling water over the entire dessert, allowing it to settle without disturbing the layers.
- Slide the baking dish into the preheated oven, allowing it to transform for 45-50 minutes until a golden, bubbling crust develops.
- Remove from the oven and let the cobbler rest briefly, allowing the flavors to meld and the texture to set.
- Serve while still warm, optionally accompanied by a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream for an indulgent finish.
Notes
- Swap milk with dairy-free alternatives like almond or oat milk for a vegan version.
- Add a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the cinnamon-sugar topping for extra warmth and depth of flavor.
- Ensure water is truly boiling when pouring over batter to help create the signature cobbler texture with a self-forming sauce.
- Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the cobbler light and tender, stirring just until ingredients are combined.
