Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 cup of brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup of milk
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 cup of corn syrup
Additional Ingredients
- 1 cup of chopped pecans
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cobbler.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt thoroughly to create the cobbler base dry mix.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Stir the melted unsalted butter, milk, and vanilla extract into the dry ingredients until you achieve a smooth batter consistency.
- Prepare Baking Dish: Grease a suitable baking dish lightly with butter or non-stick spray and pour the prepared batter evenly into it.
- Create Pecan Mixture: In a separate bowl, mix the corn syrup and the chopped pecans together to form the sweet pecan topping.
- Layer Topping: Pour the pecan and corn syrup mixture evenly over the cobbler batter in the baking dish; it will sink and create a layered effect when baked.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and set in the middle, with the pecan topping bubbly.
- Cool & Serve: Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the layers to set and flavors to meld beautifully.
Notes
- Use light or dark corn syrup based on your preferred sweetness and flavor profile.
- For a crunchier texture, toast pecans lightly before chopping and mixing.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an indulgent dessert experience.
- Make sure the baking dish is well greased to prevent sticking.
- Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently before serving.
