3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cloves

1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
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
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to create an autumn ambiance.
In a mixing bowl combine 1 cup + 3 tbsp. of all-purpose flour, 2 tsp of baking powder, 1/2 tsp of salt, 3/4 cup of granulated sugar, 1 tsp of cinnamon, 1/2 tsp of nutmeg and 1/2 tsp of cloves. Let these ingredients blend together while you prepare for the next step.
In another bowl mix together 1/2 cup of pumpkin puree, 1/4 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of melted butter (or vegetable oil) and 1 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract. Observe as they transform into an aromatic batter.
Pour this batter into a small casserole dish, with high sides measuring about eight inches. This will be the canvas for your autumn masterpiece.
Now in another bowl, combine 1/2 cup each of granulated sugar and brown sugar along with a quarter cup of chopped pecans. Let this mixture be the symphony that tops your cobbler batter.
Here’s the twist; without stirring anything gently pour one and a half cups of water over the entire creation. Trust in this process; it’s part of the enchantment.
Place it in the oven. Allow it to bake for approximately forty minutes. Experience the magic as your kitchen fills with the scent of autumn witnessing the alchemy in action.
After baking it to perfection let the cobbler cool for around 5 to 10 minutes. This moment of anticipation is just as wonderful, as that first bite.
Serve each portion with a sprinkle of pecans and a scoop of smooth vanilla ice cream. Indulge in the blend of warmth and coldness creamy goodness—a true taste of fall with every mouthful.
