Classic Pecan Pie Cobbler combines the flavors of traditional pecan pie with the ease of a cobbler. Here’s a simple recipe for you:
Ingredients:
For the Pecan Filling:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs, beaten
- 2 cups pecan halves
For the Cobbler Topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions:
1. Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Make Pecan Filling:
- In a bowl, mix together sugar, corn syrup, melted butter, vanilla extract, and beaten eggs until well combined.
- Stir in the pecan halves until evenly coated.
- Pour the pecan filling into the prepared baking dish.
3. Prepare Cobbler Topping:
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add milk and melted butter to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
4. Pour Topping Over Pecan Filling:
- Pour the cobbler topping evenly over the pecan filling in the baking dish. Spread it as evenly as possible.
5. Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes or until the cobbler topping is golden brown and set.
6. Serve:
- Allow the pecan pie cobbler to cool for a bit before serving.
- Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
