  • Instructions

Equipment

  • 9x9-inch baking dish

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Whisk flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, 1 tsp cinnamon, and salt. Stir in milk and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Pour melted butter into a 9×9-inch dish; pour batter over butter (do not stir).
  4. Mix ½ cup sugar and 1 tbsp cinnamon; sprinkle over batter.
  5. Carefully pour hot water over the top (do not stir).
  6. Bake 35–40 minutes until golden and set with bubbly syrup underneath. Cool 5 minutes; serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

Do not stir after adding batter, topping, or water. Hot water creates the self-saucing syrup. Best served warm with vanilla ice cream. Pure cinnamon-sugar comfort.
