If you’ve tried my Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler, you have a hint of this recipe’s process. To make this amazing pecan pie cobbler, you layer the ingredients—melted butter, easy batter, brown sugar tossed pecans—in a baking dish one on top of the other without stirring, which feels completely outrageous until what happens next makes it seem completely reasonable.
