Pumpkin pecan cobbler is the next big thing to make this fall. One thing I like about cobbler recipes is that you mix together all of the filling, pour it in the pan, mix together all the topping or crust and sprinkle it over top, baking it and you have a super simple yet delectable dessert!
This is also a great Thanksgiving dessert recipe for beginners to make that will impress everyone. It might be a more non-traditional pumpkin pie type recipe, but the flavor will not disappoint.

How to Make Our Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler
- Begin by preheating the oven to 350 degrees.
- Then in a large bowl whisk together the beaten eggs, evaporated milk, pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg until it is well combined and then set it aside for later.
- To make the cobbler crust, pour the melted butter into a 9×13 inch baking dish and then tilt the dish around until the butter has covered the bottom of the dish completely and evenly.
- Now in a small mixing bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, milk, and vanilla extract together and then pour that over top of the melted butter in the pan to finish making the crust.
- Then, carefully spoon or pour the pumpkin filling mix over top of the crust layer in the bottom of the pan and spread it out evenly.
- Next you will need to combine the brown sugar, flour, melted butter, and pecans in a small bowl to make the pecan topping.
- Once that is all mixed up, sprinkle it on top of the pumpkin filling and place it in the oven to bake for 50-55 minutes or until you can insert a toothpick and have it come out clean.
- Then just serve a scoop of cobbler with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce and enjoy!!
Serving Suggestions
If you ask me, all cobbler recipes are best when they are served warm with a good amount of vanilla frosting on the side, and the pumpkin cobbler recipe is no exception. You can make your own ice cream right at home and have it ready for when you are serving up the delicious warm pecan cobbler.

Did You Make This Recipe?We’d love to hear your thoughts! Leave a review or a question in the comment section below the post.
Me too!!! I’m literally such a cobbler fan that I’d bye an entire pie and just mash it up so I could have cobbler! lol
Looks yummy! Do you think there is any way this could be done in a slow cooker? I unfortunately don’t have access to an oven.
We have never made this in a slow cooker. This cooks in the oven at 350 degrees. The high temp on most slow cookers is around 290 degrees. So it would need to cook a little longer. Let us know how it turns out if you try it in the slow cooker.
what a perfect twist on pumpkin pie!, the pecan topping is a wonderful bit of texture to the typically soft pumpkin filling, so thank you for a nice addition to my Thanksgiving list!
I don’t understand about the crust. Do you simply pour the flour mixture over the melted butter?
Yes, it’s so easy! Melt the butter in the 9 x 13 inch pan. Tilt it so the butter spreads around the whole pan. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, milk and vanilla in a mixing bowl and mix together. Then pour that over the melted butter.
Making this right now. The butter and bubble do to the top in spots. It’s been in for 50 mins and I still bubbling like crazy. I hope I don’t end up with soup!
The butter and crust bubbled up to the top in spots…Dang auto correct.
Thank you for your recipes they all look good i like your pecan cobbler. I will be making it because i love pecans in most everything. ??
This is a very good and easy recipe. I drain a can of crushed pineapple and add to the peaches. I have never cooked this in a crock pot, but I may try it.
