Servings 4

Ingredients
  

Pecan Filling

  • 1/2 cup maple sugar
  • 1/4 cup refined coconut oil
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 cup pecan halves

Cobbler Topping

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup tapioca starch
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup maple sugar, or coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup refined coconut oil, melted
  • 1/4 cup dairy-free milk of choice, almond, oat, or coconut work well

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet or oven-safe baking dish.

Prepare the Filling

  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the maple sugar, coconut oil, and water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens slightly (about 3-4 minutes).
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared skillet and evenly scatter the pecan halves over the top.

Make the Cobbler Topping

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, tapioca starch, baking powder, and maple sugar.
  • Add the vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, and dairy-free milk, stirring until a thick batter forms.

Assemble the Cobbler

  • Spoon the cobbler batter over the pecan filling, spreading it evenly but leaving some gaps for the filling to bubble through.

Bake the Cobbler

  • Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cobbler topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.

Cool and Serve

  • Let the cobbler cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, topped with dairy-free vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
