Ingredients:
For the Cobbler:
- 🎃 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 🍬 1 tsp baking powder
- 🧂 1/4 tsp salt
- 🧂 1 tsp cinnamon
- 🧂 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 🍬 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 🍬 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 🎃 3/4 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 🥛 1/4 cup milk
- 🧈 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 🥄 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the Topping:
- 🍬 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 🍬 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 🧂 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 🌰 1/2 cup chopped pecans
For the Sauce:
- 💧 1 1/2 cups hot water
🔥 Instructions:
1️⃣ Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or a similar-sized casserole dish.
2️⃣ Make the Batter:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, granulated sugar, and brown sugar.
- In another bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared dish.
3️⃣ Prepare the Topping:
- In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter.
- Scatter the chopped pecans over the sugar mixture.
4️⃣ Add the Sauce:
- Gently pour the hot water over the entire dish. Do not stir—this creates the gooey sauce during baking.
5️⃣ Bake the Cobbler:
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is set and golden brown. The sauce will bubble up around the edges.
6️⃣ Serve Warm:
- Let the cobbler cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Spoon it into bowls and top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for the ultimate fall dessert! 🍴
