When it comes to fall flavors, it doesn’t get any better than pumpkin and pecan. Traditionally, these flavors were pretty much designated to pie form, but pumpkin has taken to the spotlight in recent years thanks to the famous pumpkin spice latte. It’s high time we throw some pecans in there and make a delicious autumn treat, don’t you think?
I’m normally a die-hard chocolate fan when it comes to desserts, but I’m willing to make an exception when it comes to sweet, spicy desserts like this one. Add on a scoop of cool, creamy vanilla ice cream and I’m in fall-flavored heaven!
Aside from the delicious flavors, this is one of my new go-to fall desserts because it’s so easy to throw together! There are basically just five steps to this whole thing.
Start by preheating the oven to 350. Next, mix your dry ingredients together in a medium bowl and set aside. Then, mix your wet ingredients together and pour into the dry ingredients. Mix well. Spread the mixture into a prepared baking dish and get to work on the topping.
If I’m being honest, the topping is usually my favorite part when it comes to desserts like this, and it’s no different for this Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler! Simply stir together brown sugar, sugar, and pecans and sprinkle over the cobbler. Hey, I didn’t say I had sophisticated tastes. Brown sugar, sugar, and pecans are enough to make me happy!
The final step is to pour very hot water over the entire thing – without stirring. This keeps the cobbler nice and moist. No one wants dried out, burnt cobbler, now do they? Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 40 minutes. That’s it! Go ahead and get the full ingredients list and instructions below.
