Description

This Pecan Pie Cobbler combines the rich, nutty flavors of a classic pecan pie with the comforting texture of a cobbler. Featuring a buttery pie crust base topped with a moist, sweet batter and a generous layer of pecans, this dessert is perfect for holiday gatherings or any special occasion. The combination of corn syrup, brown sugar, and vanilla creates a luscious filling that pairs wonderfully with the crunchy pecans on top.

Ingredients

Scale

Pecan Filling

  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans

Crust

  • 1 refrigerated pie crust

Cobbler Batter

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Topping

  • 1 1/2 cups pecan halves

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking your cobbler evenly.
  2. Prepare the Pecan Filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together the light corn syrup, packed brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until completely combined and smooth.
  3. Add Chopped Pecans: Stir the chopped pecans into the pecan mixture and set it aside to incorporate the flavors.
  4. Prepare the Pie Crust Base: Roll out the refrigerated pie crust on a lightly floured surface and cut it into a circle that fits your 9×13-inch baking dish. Press the crust firmly into the bottom of the dish to form an even base.
  5. Make the Cobbler Batter: In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk in the milk and melted butter until you achieve a smooth batter without lumps.
  6. Assemble the Cobbler: Pour the batter evenly over the pie crust in the baking dish, spreading it out with a spatula to cover the crust fully.
  7. Add the Pecan Mixture: Carefully spoon the prepared pecan filling over the batter layer, distributing it evenly.
  8. Top with Pecan Halves: Arrange the pecan halves on top of the filling for an appealing presentation and extra crunch.
  9. Bake the Cobbler: Place the cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and set in the center. To prevent the edges from over-browning, cover them with foil if necessary during baking.
  10. Cool and Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly after baking to let the filling set before serving for the best texture and flavor experience.

Notes

  • You can substitute light corn syrup with dark corn syrup or honey for a different flavor profile.
  • If pecans are not available, walnuts can be used as an alternative.
  • To prevent the edges of the crust from burning, cover them with aluminum foil halfway through baking if they brown too quickly.
  • This cobbler tastes great served warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
  • Ensure to not overbake; check the center by inserting a toothpick—it should come out mostly clean with moist crumbs.
