Ingredients

Cobbler:

  • 1 ½ cups 1.1 GF flour or all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • 8 tbsp cold butter
  • ¾ cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup Fisher pecans, chopped

Pecan Pie Filling:

  • 1 ½ cups corn syrup
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 eggs, room temperature
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 2 cups Fisher pecans, chopped
  • ⅛ tsp ground allspice
  • ½ tsp kosher salt

Step-by-step Directions

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Generously butter a 7×10 inch baking dish, ensuring it’s at least 2 ½” high to accommodate the cobbler.

Step 2: Mix the Filling

In a large bowl, combine all the Pecan Pie Filling ingredients. Stir until everything is evenly mixed and pour it into the prepared baking dish.

Step 3: Prepare the Cobbler Topping

In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients for the cobbler. Using a pastry cutter, cut the cold butter into the mixture until you have pea-sized crumbs. Gently stir in the buttermilk until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 4: Assemble the Cobbler

Scoop equal-sized portions of the cobbler dough and gently place them on top of the pecan pie filling in the dish.

Step 5: Bake

Place the dish in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the cobbler topping is golden and set.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

Remove from oven. Let it cool slightly before serving to allow the filling to set, making it easier to serve.

Servings and Preparation/Cooking Time

  • Servings: 8-10
  • Preparation Time: 20 minutes
  • Cooking Time: 40-45 minutes

Tips for Storage and Reheating

  • Storage: Keep leftover cobbler covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Freezing: You can freeze the baked cobbler for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
  • Reheating: Warm in a preheated 350°F oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. Microwaving is quicker but may soften the crust.

Conclusion

The Pecan Delight Cobbler is a delightful twist on two classic desserts, combining the gooey sweetness of pecan pie with the tender texture of cobbler. Whether you’re serving this up at a party or simply indulging in a treat at home, it promises to be an unforgettable dessert. Its simple preparation and wholesome ingredients make it a wonderful addition to any baker’s repertoire.
