Warmly flavored with cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and nutmeg, this cozy dessert delivers fall comfort in every bite—without the fuss of making pie crust.

Ingredients
Pumpkin Filling
425 g (15 oz) pumpkin puree
3 large eggs
134 g (⅔ cup) brown sugar
240 ml (1 cup) whole milk
3 g (½ tsp) salt
4 g (1 ½ tsp) ground cinnamon
1 g (½ tsp) ground ginger
1 g (½ tsp) ground allspice
0.5 g (¼ tsp) ground nutmeg
Pumpkin Cobbler Topping
120 g (1 cup) all-purpose or whole wheat pastry flour
110 g (½ cup) brown sugar
100 g (½ cup) granulated sugar
120 g (1 cup) chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
4 g (1 tsp) baking powder
1.5 g (½ tsp) ground cinnamon
0.5 g (⅛ tsp) ground ginger
0.5 g (⅛ tsp) ground allspice
0.5 g (⅛ tsp) ground nutmeg
1 large egg
5 ml (1 tsp) pure vanilla extract
113 g (½ cup) butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8×11-inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, eggs, brown sugar, milk, salt, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and nutmeg until smooth. Pour into prepared baking dish.
In a medium bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, nuts (if using), baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and nutmeg.
Make a well in the center, add egg and vanilla, and stir with a fork until crumbly.
Sprinkle topping evenly over the pumpkin filling, breaking apart large clumps. Drizzle melted butter evenly over the top.
Bake for 50–55 minutes, until the topping is golden and the center jiggles slightly.
Cool at least 15 minutes before serving warm with whipped cream or ice cream.
Notes
Use full-fat milk for the creamiest filling.
Toast nuts for extra flavor depth.
Reduce granulated sugar in topping for a less sweet dessert.
Cobbler will firm up as it cools, so avoid overbaking.
Leftovers make a delicious breakfast treat.
