Equipment

Deep 9x13 pan

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter melted
1½ cups all-purpose flour
2¼ teaspoon baking powder
⅓ teaspoon salt
1½ cups white sugar
1½ cups milk room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or equal amount vanilla extract
1½ cups chopped pecans
1½ cups brown sugar
½ cup hot water
vanilla ice cream for serving

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish.
Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and white sugar in a large mixing bowl until the mixture is smooth and powdery.
Gradually pour the milk into the flour mixture while continuously whisking to prevent lumps from forming. Next, stir in the vanilla bean paste. The batter should be thin and runny.
Carefully pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir!
Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the batter. Don't stir them in!
Mix the brown sugar with hot water in a separate bowl until the sugar is mostly dissolved. Gently pour this brown sugar mixture over the pecans and batter in the baking dish, but do not stir.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and crispy. The center should be slightly jiggly when it's done.
Allow the pecan pie cobbler to rest on the counter for at least 15 minutes before serving.
