Pecan Pie Cobbler is a warm, gooey southern dessert with the wonderful crunch of pecans. So much easier to make than a pie, but it has all the flavor of a pecan pie.

You’ll definitely want to serve this southern dessert with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream.

The butter and sugar combine to make an amazing caramel sauce. There’s also brickle toffe bits added to the cobbler for extra flavor. Every bite is so rich, buttery and amazingly sweet.

This Pecan Pie Cobbler is such an amazing fall dessert. You’ll make this cobbler pretty much the same way you would a fruit cobbler.

First melt a stick of butter in a 9×13-inch pan by placing it in a 350 degree oven until melted. Watch it carefully so you don’t burn the butter.

Stir together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Then stir in the milk and vanilla.

Once the butter is melted, spoon the batter into the pan as evenly as possible. Sprinkle the pecans, brown sugar, and toffee bits on top then slowly pour 1 1/2 cups of boiling water evenly into the baking pan.

Bake for 30 minutes and get ready to dig into the most delicious gooey pecan pie dessert you have ever tasted.

  1. I first made this last summer on our sailboat in my small oven and only made a 3/4 recipe. I made it for Thanksgiving And Christmas (everyone loved it)! Itā€™s my favorite dessert to bring to a potluck! Thanks for a great recipe, so much easier than a pie! Served with ice cream or whipped cream!

    Bakers!! I’m confused by all the water questions!!?? Most sticky cobblers have hot water poured over top of batter and then placed into the oven! Comes out incredibly delicious!!

    Sounds wonderful but I am a bit confused. Does the water get drizzled over the batter?

  4. I have same question about the water! Is water poured over the contents of baking dish or is baking dish put into another pan that has water in it to bake?
