Ingredients
  

For the Cobbler Base
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Provides structure to the cobbler; ensure accurate measuring to avoid density.
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder Essential for leavening; a must-have for that light texture.
  • 1 tsp Salt Enhances flavor; don’t omit for that perfect balance.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Adds sweetness and helps caramelize during baking.
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon Infuses warmth; feel free to adjust based on your preference.
  • 1/2 tsp Nutmeg Elevates the autumn flavor profile; can substitute with pumpkin pie spice if desired.
  • 1/4 tsp Cloves Adds depth; reduce if too strong for your taste.
For the Pumpkin Mixture
  • 1 cup Pumpkin Puree Key ingredient for flavor and moisture; use pure pumpkin, not pie filling.
  • 1/2 cup Milk Moisten the batter; can substitute with almond or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
  • 1/2 cup Melted Butter Adds richness; choose based on your preference.
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract Enhances the overall flavor for a delightful experience.
For the Topping
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar Adds a nice caramelization and extra sweetness.
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar Complements white sugar, adding richness to the cobbler.
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Pecans Provides crunch and flavor; can substitute with walnuts or omit if desired.
For the Final Touch

Step-by-Step Instructions for Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it's hot enough for our Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
  3. In a separate smaller bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently stir until you achieve a thick batter.
  5. Evenly spread the batter into a greased 8-inch casserole dish, making sure to reach the edges.
  6. In a separate bowl, mix together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and chopped pecans.
  7. Carefully pour very hot water over the entire dish without stirring.
  8. Transfer the casserole dish to your preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes.
  9. Once baked, remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
