Instructions for Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler:
Step 1: Prepare the Pumpkin Filling
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, salt, evaporated milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the pumpkin filling into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Step 2: Create the Cobbler Topping
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt for the cobbler topping.
- Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Fold in the chopped pecans until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 3: Assemble and Bake
- Sprinkle the cobbler topping evenly over the pumpkin filling in the baking dish.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes or until the cobbler topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy the Autumn Bliss
- Scoop generous portions of the warm Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler onto dessert plates or bowls.
- Optional: Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for added indulgence.
- Relish in the delightful flavors of fall as you enjoy each spoonful of this comforting dessert.
Tips for Autumn Perfection:
- Customize the spice level to your liking by adjusting the amount of pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon in the filling.
- For a crunchy twist, toast the chopped pecans lightly before adding them to the cobbler topping.
- Store any leftovers (if there are any!) covered in the refrigerator. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven before serving again.
