This easy-to-make treat features a buttery pecan filling topped with a light cobbler crust, perfect for family gatherings, holiday celebrations, or cozy weekend indulgences.

Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup corn syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Batter

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or almond/gluten-free flour for variation)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup melted butter (or plant-based butter for vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped pecans, brown sugar, corn syrup or honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir thoroughly until well blended to create the rich, nutty filling base.
  2. Make the Batter: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until the batter is smooth and creamy, ensuring a light and fluffy cobbler topping.
  3. Assemble the Cobbler: Pour the batter into a greased baking dish, then evenly spread the pecan filling over the top. For a marbled effect, gently swirl the filling into the batter, or simply layer as preferred.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Bake the cobbler in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 40 to 45 minutes, until the crust is golden and the filling bubbles along the edges.
  5. Cool Slightly Before Serving: Let the cobbler cool for 10 to 15 minutes to allow the filling to set enough for neat slicing while keeping it gooey and delicious.

Notes

  • Use freshly toasted pecans for enhanced crunch and flavor.
  • Do not overmix the batter to maintain an airy and tender crust.
  • Grease your baking pan well to prevent sticking and help with clean serving.
  • Ensure your oven temperature is accurate to avoid burning the pecans.
  • Serve the cobbler warm, preferably with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for best enjoyment.
