INGREDIENTS
FOR THE TOPPING:
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 cup milk
FOR THE FILLING:
• 1 cup light corn syrup
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup chopped pecans
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Topping: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the melted butter and milk until just combined. Set aside.
3. Prepare the Baking Dish: Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
4. Make the Filling: Pour the corn syrup, granulated sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract directly into the prepared baking dish. Whisk the ingredients together until fully combined and smooth.
5. Add Pecans: Evenly sprinkle the chopped pecans over the filling mixture.
6. Add Topping: Drop spoonfuls of the topping batter over the filling. It’s okay if some of the filling peeks through; this will create a beautiful, rustic cobbler effect.
7. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly and set.
8. Serve: Serve warm with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream for a truly indulgent experience!
