Ingredients

Scale

Pumpkin Filling

  • 1 ½ cups pumpkin puree
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Cobbler Topping

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 4 tbsp butter, melted and slightly cooled

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pumpkin Filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and well combined. This forms the luscious, spiced base of your cobbler.
  2. Mix the Cobbler Topping: Combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Slowly stir in the milk and melted butter until you get a thick batter with no lumps. This batter will create a tender, flavorful crust as it cooks atop the pumpkin filling.
  3. Assemble in the Crockpot: Pour the pumpkin mixture directly into the crockpot. Spoon the cobbler topping evenly over the surface, making sure to cover as much area as possible without mixing.
  4. Cook Low and Slow: Cover and cook on low for 3 to 4 hours, or until the cobbler topping is set, lightly golden, and a toothpick inserted into the topping comes out clean. Avoid opening the lid too often to keep the heat consistent.
  5. Serve Warm and Enjoy: Once cooked, let it sit for a few minutes before serving. This gives the cobbler time to thicken perfectly. Scoop generous portions into bowls and add your favorite garnishes like whipped cream or ice cream.

Notes

  • Use freshly ground cinnamon and nutmeg for the best flavor.
  • Don’t overfill the crockpot; leave space for heat circulation.
  • Resist the urge to lift the crockpot lid frequently to maintain consistent cooking temperature.
  • Let melted butter cool slightly before mixing to prevent curdling the batter.
  • Test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the topping; it should come out clean but the topping remains soft.
