Description
Snickerdoodle Cobbler is a warm and comforting dessert that combines the cinnamon sweetness of snickerdoodle cookies with the gooey richness of a classic cobbler. It features a soft, cake-like base with a syrupy, caramelized layer beneath a crisp cinnamon-sugar topping.
Ingredients
Scale
- 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
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
- 1 1/2 cups hot water
- Topping:
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or butter a 9×13-inch baking pan and pour melted butter evenly into the bottom.
- In a large bowl, whisk together milk, vanilla extract, and sugar until mostly dissolved.
- Add flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Whisk gently until just combined; do not overmix.
- Spoon batter gently over the melted butter in the pan without stirring.
- Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over the top of the batter.
- Carefully pour hot water evenly over the entire surface. Do not stir.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes or until golden brown and mostly set, with a slightly jiggly center.
- While hot, mix topping sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over the cobbler.
- Let cool for 10–15 minutes before serving warm.
Notes
- Use dairy-free milk and butter alternatives for a vegan or dairy-free version.
- Do not stir the layers before baking—this creates the cobbler’s gooey texture.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
- Adjust cinnamon level to suit your preference.
