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.

    1. Love this cobbler, been making it for years and always use light bown sugar. Is it brown sugar packed light? Or light brown sugar? Thank you.

  1. 5 stars
    PHENOMENAL!! My BFF’s husband “loves” pecan pie, so when he took a bite of this, he was “over the moon” with joy (she hates to make anything with sugar, although it’s only her preference, and as such, her family doesn’t get too many desserts like this except when I’m at their house 🙂 ).

  2. I was dying to add chocolate chips ala derby pie, but chickened out! Anybody tried that?

  3. 5 stars
    My family and I love this cobbler!! It’s delicious and easy to make. I wonder, however, if there would be any way this would work with fruit?

  4. 5 stars
    I made this yesterday to take to supper at my parents’ house. Let’s just say, it was extremely well received! My 98 year old Daddy said he liked it better than pecan pie. My sisters all wanted the recipe, so I shared the page link. And told them there were other good sounding cobblers and many other recipes here. I will no doubt be making this for our potluck at church in a couple of weeks.

  5. I have a question about the self-rising flour. I don’t have any, lol. What rising agent(s) can I sift in and how much? I don’t drive anymore and I already had groceries delivered for the next two weeks. I really want to make this Pecan Cobbler! My mouth is all set for it. Help!!!

    1. This link >>> how to make self-rising flour will take you to the part in the post with the information for using all-purpose flour.

    I love pecans so was excited to try this, albeit curious about the steps as they’re not typical in baking. I was pleased but not overly impressed. I will try it gain but will increase the quantity of pecans as it needed more, and will toast them first, as they tasted flat & not “toasted” as noted in the description. Also, the recipe did not indicate what type of pecan cut to use – only when I clicked on the link did I see it called for halves. Lastly, a reviewer commented not to overcook and that it would appear loose when done & would firm up. This should have been noted in the instructions as I did not really know what to expect when the timer went off at 32 minutes (I baked 10 extra minutes because it was so loose in the middle). I enjoyed it with good vanilla ice cream and will make again, but with a few modifications.

    1. If you don’t like a recipe then don’t say anything at all. I’m just sure you are not the best baker out there. People and their negative comments. SHM. Just don’t make it again. So proud you are Ms. Perfect

  7. I’m debating trying this because of the 3 cups of sugar. Is it sweeter than pecan pie? Thanks!

      1. May help first timer’s to mention when mixing ingredients in small bowl, to only add the white sugar. Brown sugar is added on top of batter.
