This fun Fall dessert is loaded with cinnamon and creates it’s own caramel sauce while it bakes!

The Best Of Fall

Snickerdoodle Cobbler. This dessert is so easy to make, and kind of magical. Not to mention it is perfect for Fall baking!
I have a deep love for all things cinnamon. Like this Snickerdoodle Oatmeal, and these Cinnamon Blondies. And now I’m adding this Snickerdoodle Cobbler to my list of favorite things.
This is basically a cinnamon cake, but we’re going to layer things up with some melted butter, the cake batter, and then pour hot water over the whole thing. I know it sounds weird. But just trust me on this! You will end up with a moist cinnamon cake, that is hiding an indulgent caramel sauce underneath!
