Ingredients
For the Cobbler
• 1 cup + 3 tablespoons all purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon cloves
• 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
• 1/4 cup milk

For the Topping
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup chopped pecans
• 1 1/2 cups very hot water
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a medium sized bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and spices. Set aside.
• In a smaller bowl, stir pumpkin, milk, melted butter and vanilla together to combine. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix to create a thick batter. Pour into a small 8-inch casserole dish with high sides.
• In a separate bowl, stir sugar, brown sugar and pecans together. Spread over the top of the batter evenly. Pour hot water over the entire thing {WITHOUT STIRRING A THING!} and bake for 40 minutes or once the middle is set. {Be sure to place on a baking sheet incase it bubbles over.} Cool 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve with more pecans and vanilla ice cream.
