Ingredients
  

For the Cobbler
  • ½ cup Unsalted Butter Use high-quality butter for rich flavor. Can substitute with melted coconut oil for a dairy-free alternative.
  • 1 cup Whole Milk Adds creaminess. Can substitute with almond milk or other plant-based milk.
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract Pure vanilla is preferred but imitation works in a pinch.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Base sweetener; reduce amount for a less sweet dessert.
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Standard flour. Use gluten-free flour blend for gluten-free option.
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder Ensure freshness for best results.
  • 1 tablespoon Cinnamon Star flavoring agent; adjust amount based on preference.
  • ½ cup Brown Sugar Adds caramel flavor; can mix granulated sugar with molasses for homemade.

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  6. Gently pour hot water over the top without stirring.
Baking
