What could be better than pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving? A Pecan Crumble Pumpkin Cobbler! Add some whipped cream and a Caramel Drizzle... It's sure to be a family favorite!
This Pecan Crumble Pumpkin Cobbler has all the goodness of a pumpkin pie with a Pecan Crumble topping for added flavor and texture. It's simple to make, much easier than pie. For one thing, there's no crust to roll out. And the secret ingredient....a boxed cake mix.
Part of the cake mix is combined with butter, egg, and baking powder and spread into the bottom of a 9 by 13 inch pan. How easy is that for a crust?!
The filling is made from traditional pumpkin pie ingredients.
The pumpkin filling is spread over the bottom layer.
¾ of the cake mix is reserved and mixed with butter and sugar to form the crumb topping which is sprinkled on top.
Chopped pecans are sprinkled on last for flavor and crunch.
The Pecan Crumble Pumpkin Cobbler is baked at 350 until the top starts turning golden brown, and viola! As easy as pie...No! Easier!
Drizzle with Caramel Sauce and top with whipped cream or eat it plain as it is, either way it's delicious!
