Ingredients

Scale

Dough Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened (or vegan butter for dairy-free option)
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup milk or cream (or plant-based milk for dairy-free option)

Optional Toppings and Variations

  • Cinnamon sugar mixture (½ tablespoon cinnamon mixed with 2 tablespoons granulated sugar) for sprinkling
  • Chopped toasted pecans or walnuts
  • Diced apples or pears
  • Coarse sugar for extra texture

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt. In a separate large bowl, cream the softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract and blend well. Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Finally, mix in the milk until you have a soft, thick batter ready to bake.
  2. Assemble the Cobbler: Grease your baking dish thoroughly to prevent sticking and pour the dough in evenly. Optionally, sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top to enhance the signature snickerdoodle flavor and create a crispy crust.
  3. Bake to Golden Perfection: Place the baking dish in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C). Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Ovens may vary, so start checking near the 30-minute mark.
  4. Cool and Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly to let the flavors meld and texture settle. Serve warm, optionally topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for added richness.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients to ensure even mixing and a smooth batter.
  • Mix ingredients just until combined to avoid tough cobbler texture.
  • Grease baking dish well to help crust brown evenly and prevent sticking.
  • Watch baking time closely, as ovens can vary in heat.
  • Let the cobbler rest before slicing to keep it from falling apart.
