Ingredients

For the cobbler

6 tbsp unsalted butter (melted) Melted for the base.
1 cup self-rising flour Helps with the structure of the cobbler.
1 cup granulated sugar For sweetness.
1/2 cup milk Adds moisture.
1 tsp vanilla extract Enhances flavor.
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans Provides the signature nutty flavor.
1 cup packed brown sugar Creates the luscious, caramel-like filling.
1 1/2 cups hot water To help create the filling during baking.

Instructions

Preparation and Baking

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Pour melted butter into the bottom of a 9×13” baking dish.
In a bowl, mix together flour, granulated sugar, milk, and vanilla until just combined (don’t overmix).
Carefully pour this batter over the butter in the baking dish – do not stir.
Sprinkle chopped pecans evenly over the batter.
Then, sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top.
Gently pour the hot water over everything – again, do not stir.
Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden and set, and the caramel is bubbling up around the edges.
Let cool for 10–15 minutes before serving – the filling will thicken as it rests.

Notes

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. For a cozy twist, add a pinch of cinnamon or a dash of bourbon to the batter. Ideal for Thanksgiving, potlucks, or any fall gathering.
