INGREDIENT NOTES:
PECANS:
- These are the basic components to make your pecan pie cobbler. It gives a nutty taste and crunchy texture. Pecans make your cobbler satisfying. You may use mixed nuts as per your preference.
BROWN SUGAR SUBSTITUTE:
- It provides a sweet, caramel-like taste and reduces calories as well. We use it to make delicious syrupy filling during baking. Use coconut sugar as another option.
SELF-RISING FLOUR:
- Self-rising flour makes a tender cobbler topping. It raises the batter properly and includes a cake-like texture. You may use one tbsp. baking powder as an alternative.
UNSWEETENED APPLESAUCE:
- It keeps the cobbler moist and tender while reducing fat. Applesauce is the main component to make this recipe lighter. Use mashed banana as another option.
SKIM MILK:
- Skim milk includes moisture, and blend all the ingredients together. It makes a smooth batter and keeps fat content low. You may use oat milk, soy milk, or fat-free milk as per your choice.
HOT WATER:
- Hot water is important during baking as it mixes with the sweetener to make a caramel-like sauce underneath the cobbler. If you do not want to add water, use hot coffee instead.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First, warm the oven to 350°F and coat your dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Then whisk self-rising flour, applesauce, skim milk, salt, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and melted light butter in a large mixing bowl to make a smooth batter.
- When no lumps remain, include the batter evenly into the dish.
- Sprinkle chopped pecans and brown sugar substitute evenly on the batter.
- Now carefully include hot water on the entire dish and bake for 35 minutes.
- Lastly, take the cobbler out of the oven and cool for ten minutes.
TIPS:
- Toast the pecans for 4 minutes before including to get an improved taste.
- Avoid stirring after adding hot water to form cobbler layers properly.
- Before serving, let your recipe rest for ten minutes.
- Must use ingredients at room temperature to get a smoother batter.
