Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
- ¾ cup (180 ml) whole milk
- ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tsps baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup (200 g) brown sugar, packed
- 1 ½ cups (360 ml) hot water
Instructions
- Preparation: Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray to ensure effortless serving and clean release.
- Batter Creation: Whisk flour, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl until perfectly blended, creating a uniform dry foundation.
- Liquid Integration: Gently fold milk and melted butter into the dry mixture, stirring until a slightly textured batter emerges without aggressive mixing.
- Base Layer: Spread the batter smoothly across the prepared dish, establishing an even canvas for the forthcoming cinnamon transformation.
- Aromatic Coating: Combine brown sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl, crafting a fragrant mixture that will elevate the dessert’s flavor profile.
- Layering Essence: Liberally dust the cinnamon-sugar blend over the batter, creating a tantalizing stratum of sweet and spicy complexity.
- Moisture Infusion: Delicately pour hot water across the entire surface, allowing it to settle without disrupting the carefully constructed layers.
- Baking Alchemy: Position the cobbler in a preheated oven, baking for 40-45 minutes until the top achieves a rich golden-brown tone and edges bubble with promise.
- Resting and Serving: Allow the cobbler to rest for 10 minutes, permitting the sauce to thicken and flavors to harmonize, then present with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a cloud of whipped cream for the ultimate indulgence.
Notes
- Prevent Overmixing: Stir batter gently to maintain a slightly lumpy texture, which helps create a tender, light cobbler base without developing tough gluten strands.
- Control Water Distribution: Pour hot water slowly and carefully across the surface to prevent disrupting the cinnamon-sugar layer and ensure even sauce formation.
- Customize Sweetness Levels: Adjust brown sugar quantity based on personal preference or dietary needs, reducing sugar for a less sweet version or using alternative sweeteners.
- Enhance Serving Versatility: Experiment with different ice cream flavors or non-dairy alternatives like coconut whipped cream to accommodate various dietary restrictions and taste preferences.
