Ingredients
  

For the Batter:

  • 1 cup 125 g all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup 150 g granulated sugar
  • teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup 115 g unsalted butter, melted
  • ½ cup 120 ml milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Cinnamon Topping:

  • ½ cup 100 g brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • cups hot water

Instructions
 

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.

    Make the batter:

    • In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
    • Stir in melted butter, milk, and vanilla until smooth.

    Assemble:

    • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.

    Add topping:

    • In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and cinnamon.
    • Sprinkle evenly over the batter.

    Add hot water:

    • Carefully pour hot water over the top (do not stir).

    Bake:

    • Bake for 35–40 minutes, until the top is set and golden.

    Serve:

    • Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm for best texture.

    Notes

    • Magic layer: The hot water creates a rich sauce underneath as it bakes—don’t mix it in.
    • Best serving: Pair with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
    • Extra flavor: Add a pinch of nutmeg for warmth.
    • Storage: Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days and reheat before serving.
