Pecan Pie Cobbler has a fluffy with a crisp top, crunchy from the pecans, and is self-saucing. Self-saucing simply means the ingredients create a sauce as it cooks. This is a result of layering the ingredients as I indicate in the recipe box below.

More about this Pecan Pie Cobbler recipe

Unlike most cobblers, this Pecan Cobbler is absent of any fruit. It’s rich and totally irresistible. Enjoy it plain or with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream.

  1. I do not recommend using margarine in place of the butter, the caramel turn out the same using margarine. Stick with the real thing in this recipe.
  2. I make this pecan cobbler with self-rising flour, I haven’t test it with all-purpose flour.
  3. Yes, this recipe has a lot of sugar. The sugar and butter make the caramel sauce and it’s amazing!

Self-rising flour is all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt added. To make your own, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 and 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.

Tips and Recommendations

  • I use whole milk.
  • I cannot stress enough the importance of using real butter. Do not use margarine.
  • As well, I do not recommend reducing either the brown sugar or the hot water in this recipe.
  • Additionally, I don’t recommend reducing the amount of butter. These three components are what make the sauce and it’s detrimental this ingredients as well as the amounts are correct.
How long does Pecan Cobbler last?

Three days in the fridge. Store your cobbler in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 72 hours.

How do I reheat Pecan Pie Cobber?

To reheat, you can reheat it either in the oven or the microwave. To reheat it in the oven, turn your oven to 350 degrees F and heat until the cobbler is heated through. Furthermore, for the microwave, cover it with a damp paper towel and reheat it in 30-second increments until heated through.

    I work at a convenience store but we offer homemade biscuits for breakfast and homemade pizza, burgers, chicken sandwiches, hot dogs, Philly cheesesteaks, etc . for lunch and dinner . On Sundays, I do a Sunday dinner and on occasion I will serve a dessert with dinner. I was looking for a dessert recipes and stumbled across your pecan cobbler recipe. I made it at home to try it out before serving and selling it to the public and all I can say is…DELICIOUS! It was an easy, straightforward recipe and simple to make. I received so many compliments on the cobbler and have had many customers requesting that I make it again. They are even suggesting that they would be willing to purchase as an ala carte item. For those who are saying that it’s a bit too sweet the blogger recommends serving it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I would have to agree as I happen to be one of those people who thinks vanilla ice cream is a requirement for any type of cobbler or fruit pie. The cool creaminess of the vanilla cream cuts the sweetness down a bit and makes the cobbler even better. Again, thank you for the recipe it was just wonderful!

    1. I’m so happy that you and your customers enjoy it. I always have picked the fruit out of cobblers so I was determined to make one without fruit. 😄 Please give your customers my website address >https://www.callmepmc.com/pecan-cobbler-and-reasons-i-blog/ for the recipe. Thanks so much for commenting. Paula

    👏 This pecan cobbler recipe looks absolutely amazing! Can’t wait to try it out and impress my friends and family. Thanks for sharing! 🙌

  3. I made it today for my husband on Easter Sunday. He liked it but it was too sweet. I used pecans out of my freezer, they where raw pecans. It made the pecans soft not crunchy. I don’t know if I was suppose to roast them or use the store bought kind. Well maybe you can tell me the right kind to use. The recipe didn’t say not to use raw pecans. My husband enjoyed it alot, but he said that nothing can beat a homemade pecan pie. I followed the recipe, but the pecans had no crunch to them.

    1. You can toast the pecans but I don’t usually toast them and I store all nuts in the freezer. They crunchy turn out crunchy for me. Are your pecans homegrown? I really don’t know why they wouldn’t stay crunchy.

  4. I heated the butter in the oven as the recipe states, and my glass casserole dish exploded in the oven. Next day, several hours of cleaning glass and butter out of my oven, I’m going to try again – melting the butter separately and pouring it into the dish.

    1. I’m no expert but I have read that some years back Pyrex changed the formula for their glass baking dishes and that the new product is much more susceptible to glass exploding. That could be what happened to your dish.

    It is complete MAGIC! Seriously, hot water? I don’t know how it works…… but it works. You have to try it today! I also like that the recipe can be easily cut in half.

    I made this recipe exactly as written. It’s delicious. I don’t care for pecan pie, but I love this. This will be a new holiday dessert. We’re having company tonight, but my husband and I can’t stay out of it. Going to serve it with vanilla ice cream.

  7. I made this for my wife and she LOVED it! Kids did too. I want to take it to gatherings, but feel I will need twice as much once people taste how good it is. Lol. Do you think that doubling the recipe would work?

  8. I made this for dessert today. Everybody really enjoyed it. My Granddaughter doesn’t usually like nuts, but she really liked this. My 13 month old great grandson absolutely loved it!
