Join me as we swan dive into this amazing Pecan Pie Cobbler! There’s a pool of caramel down here, hiding beneath a buttery, sticky, cloud-like surface and a shower of brown sugar toasted pecans. DID I MENTION THE CARAMEL POOL? This easy dessert recipe truly is magic!
I realize that calling a pecan pie cobbler (or any dessert) “magic” might not have the same persuasive oomph coming from someone who is prone to superlatives (for the record, this Vegan Apple Crisp really is the best fruit crisp EVER. This Dutch Oven Peach Cobbler is the best easy fruit dessert; the Pumpkin Pecan Pie is the best pumpkin pie, etc.).
This pecan pie cobbler, however, possesses magic of a different kind. In addition to the mesmerizing taste and texture—to eat it is to slip into a fall dessert fantasy—the very cooking process is something of a culinary wonder.
If you’ve tried my Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler, you have a hint of this recipe’s process. To make this amazing pecan pie cobbler, you layer the ingredients—melted butter, easy batter, brown sugar tossed pecans—in a baking dish one on top of the other without stirring, which feels completely outrageous until what happens next makes it seem completely reasonable…
