How to make pumpkin cobbler

PREP. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.

COMBINE. Whisk the sugar and eggs together in a bowl until light in color. Add the pumpkin, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt to the egg mixture and stir until fully incorporated.

Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared baking dish and lightly sprinkle the cake mix over the top completely covering the pumpkin mixture. Slowly drizzle melted butter over all of the cake mix so it doesn’t puddle.

BAKE. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the pumpkin mixture is set and the topping is golden brown.

Recipe Tips

Pure pumpkin is the same as pumpkin puree, you might see it in the store labeled either way. My Homemade Pumpkin Puree is surprisingly easy to make and would be a great addition to this recipe.

Double this recipe and bake it in a 9X13 in baking dish instead. The cook time will remain the same.

Variations

  • Nuts: Add pecans, walnuts, hazelnuts, or toffee bits to the topping before baking.
  • Cake Mix Flavor: Make with a spice cake mix instead.
  • Toppings: Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, some whipped cream, whipped non dairy topping, or even drizzle some caramel over the top.

Storing Info

STORE pumpkin cobbler out on the counter at room temperature for no more than a few hours. It is then best to refrigerate it. Make sure to cool completely before refrigerating. Wrap the dish tightly in plastic wrap or transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to a week.

FREEZE any leftovers, but the texture may be a little different when the cobbler is thawed. Don’t worry – it will still taste delicious! Make sure to cool first, then wrap with plastic wrap followed by foil, or store in a freezer safe container for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight when you are ready to enjoy this dish again. 

REHEAT leftovers in the microwave if desired.
