Pecan Cobbler
After I was gifted a large bag of fresh pecans I decided it was time for me to attempt to re-create the amazing pecan cobbler served at Texas Pride BBQ. I came pretty close and was pleased with the warm, gooey result. I made our dessert on a small scale to prevent Ricky from over eating but I guess you can expand my recipe to serve more than two if you'd like.
You need:
1 cup of chopped pecans
2/3 cup light corn syrup
1 cup of sugar, divided
3 tablespoons of melted butter and an additional 1/2 stick melted butter
2 tablespoon vanilla
1 tablespoon butter flavor
1 cup flour
1 cup of milk
3 eggs
non stick spray
6 x 8 Pyrex dish (or similar size)
In one bowl, combine corn syrup, 3 tablespoons of melted butter, 1 tbsp vanilla, two eggs and 1/2 cup sugar. Blend well. Add chopped pecans and set aside.
In a second bowl, mix 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup flour, 1 cup milk, one egg, 1 tbsp vanilla and 1 tbsp butter flavor. Spray Pyrex dish with non-stick spray. Pour contents of the second bowl into the Pyrex dish. Pour the pecan mixture (from the first bowl) on top of the batter.
Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 40 minutes or until edges look crispy. Allow the cobbler to cool for 20-25 minutes before serving.
Let me know what you think!

ReplyDeleteI see no where in this recipe where the 1/2 stick of melted butter is used?
ReplyDeleteme neither :(
Delete1/2 stick of butter is 4 tbsp do the math
ReplyDeleteit states 3 TBS + additional 1\2 stick butter.
DeleteI have the same question. They weren't asking how much is 1/2 stick -they were asking when you put in the 1/2 stick. It specifically tells you when to put in the 3 TBSP but doesn't ever mention where the other 1/2 stick goes.
DeleteOk, I am not seeing where the additional 1/2 cup (4 TBL) melted butter is used. Could you explain. I would love to make this too. I was in San Antonio for my sisters wedding and we ended up at a place that saved this. It was to die for, love pecan pie and this was so much better.
