Cranberry-Pecan Cobbler image

This recipe came to The Times in a 1999 article by Florence Fabricant in which she argued for replacing the ubiquitous Thanksgiving pie with a cobbler. Why? The pastry stays crisp, there's a greater fruit-to-crust ratio and perhaps most importantly, it's easier. Here, two Thanksgiving favorites - cranberries and pecans - are piled into a baking dish, topped with cornmeal biscuits then baked until golden. (This can be made early in the day and reheated to serve warm. Or it can be frozen, then defrosted and warmed, but is best if not refrigerated overnight.)

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespooons melted unsalted butter
4 1/2 cups cranberries
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1 1/3 cups light brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons flour, plus flour for work surface
1/3 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Cornmeal biscuit dough (see recipe)

  • Combine berries, pecans, sugar, one and a half tablespoons flour, orange juice, cinnamon and remaining butter in a bowl. Transfer mixture to baking dish.

This cobbler was a disaster! The crust was raw and the filling was too runny. I don't know what went wrong, but I won't be making this recipe again.

The cobbler was good, but the crust was a little dry. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different recipe for the crust.

This cobbler was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less sugar in the filling.

I'm not a huge fan of cranberries, but this cobbler was still really good! The pecans and the crumble topping made up for the tartness of the cranberries.

This cobbler was easy to make and turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more sugar to the filling. Other than that, it was perfect.

This is the best cranberry pecan cobbler I've ever had! The crust is flaky and buttery, the filling is tart and sweet, and the pecans add a nice crunch. I highly recommend this recipe.
