It’s pumpkin season and we’re all about those fall flavors. There’s something nostalgic and comforting about the taste and the smells of the season, so we’ve been in the kitchen cooking up some fantastic new treats to help us (and you) get in the fall spirit.
One of our favorite go-to desserts is this self-saucing pumpkin pecan cobbler. A dense cake mix is spread in the bottom of a baking dish then topped with a pecan and brown sugar topping. Boiling apple cider is poured over the mixture before it is baked. The result is a tender, moist cobbler with a luscious caramel sauce that settles on the bottom. Top the cobbler with vanilla ice cream then spoon the sauce on top.
If you want to kick it up a notch, swap out 1/2 cup of the apple cider with your favorite adult beverage. We prefer Fireball or bourbon for this particular recipe. But, you might opt to enjoy a shot on the side because this recipe is amazing as is. Enjoy!
