Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup whole milk
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 (28 oz) can pumpkin pie filling
Directions
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Place a 10-inch oven-safe skillet in the oven to heat, or prepare a 9 x 9 inch baking dish. Melt the butter in the skillet or dish.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice until well combined.
Stir the milk into the dry ingredients until a smooth, thin batter forms.
Carefully pour the batter over the melted butter in the skillet or dish, spreading it evenly. Do not stir.
Spoon the pumpkin pie filling in dollops across the top of the batter. Do not mix the filling into the batter.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the cobbler is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes, then serve warm.
Comments
Pumpkin pie filling is readily available at every Charlotte grocery chain during fall and winter, making this a no-excuses weeknight dessert that costs under $2 per serving—butter and flour do the heavy lifting. The stated 35 minutes is honest for mixing and baking, though you'll want a cast-iron skillet and a reliable oven, as it needs hands-off time to cook through. This is a forgiving, crowd-pleasing dish that reheats well and feeds six, hitting the seasonal sweet spot when pumpkin is in season locally; the only caveat is that canned pumpkin pie filling is sweeter and spicier than fresh, so taste as you go if you prefer to dial back the sugar.
