Shhh... don't tell anyone. But I'm not. I've tried and tried. But alas, a golden, flaky, buttery, perfectly baked pie crust holds no power over me. I appreciate the work, the care and the artistry that goes into the making of one. But that is as far as it goes for this girl.
Cobbler, however is an entirely irresistible, unconventional, sugary, crumbly, ice cream topped temptation that I am powerless against.
So if by chance you aren't a pie girl either, make what I look forward to most at the end of our Thanksgiving day meal.
{Basically you are making the pumpkin pie without the crust,
baking it halfway so it sets a bit,
adding the cake mix cobbler topping,
then baking it again to brown the cobbler part and finish cooking the pie part.}
Cobbleriffic.
This looks amazing! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletePie is my favorite...it's cake that I'm not a fan of. I will have to pass this along to my husband who love pumpkin everything.
ReplyDeletemmmmm I am TOTALLY trying this on Thursday!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!!!
For weight purposes, I wish I was not a pie kinda girl. However, a world without pie sounds like a sad, lonely place. ;)
ReplyDeleteThe cobbler sounds yummy though.
xo*tricia
This sounds so yummy....and easy. Thanks for sharing. Here's a GREAT TIP for you. Try subbing the condensed milk in the pie filling recipe with COCONUT MILK. A friend brought a pumpkin pie to a recent MOPS meeting and it was mind-blowing fantastic, but only subtly different. I thought it was almond extract, but turned out to be the coconut milk. So good. Try it. :) happy thanksgiving. ---- Teresa
ReplyDeleteI've been lame-o about commenting on your blog...but I gotta tell ya..I'm going to try this because I am too lazy to prepare or go out and buy a crust (have everything else). Also, I made the recipe for Rosemary bread when you posted it and my family thanks you!
ReplyDeleteYUM.
ReplyDeletei love pie though.
i had FRIED pumpkin pie this month and i about died.
it was DEEEEEEEvine.
"Golden, flaky, buttery, perfectly baked pie crust" made me drool a little, I will admit. But wow that cobbler sounds amazing! And it is at my cooking level. This, I will have to try. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI'm right with ya on the pie thing. I usually eat whatever the filling is and then leave the pie crust alone. Cobbler...now that's another story entirely! Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteI hated pie my whole life, then when I was pregnant, I craved it. now I am still a HUGE fan...but only APPLE PIE.
ReplyDeleteYOU are AWESOME and made me look like a star with your easy peasy Apple cobbler, can't wait to try this one!!!!
ReplyDeleteHi. I've just been recommended to read your blog by a friend and have been reading your story about Joy. I cried, and can relate in just a small way to your story. Thank you so much for sharing, and I hope you don't mind, I've decided to become a 'follower'. By the way, the cobbler looks divine! xx
ReplyDeletenot a pie girl. except for my peanut butter chocolate pie. but i'm not sure that counts. it's really more of a giant reeses peanut butter cup disguised as a pie. it's sneaky like that.
ReplyDeleteYUM!!!! definately trying!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
Blessings!

p.s. I had to google the word "genius" to see how to spell it . . . isn't that terrible??
nope. I too am not a pie person.
ReplyDeletewell, let me re-phrase that. I am not a "hot-fruit-person."
cream pies? fine.
graham cracker crust? tasty.
regular, flaky pie crust? no go.
Today, Thanksgiving, I am making apple pie and chocolate peanut butter pie. I will be eating the latter, thank you very much. ;)
I thought I was the only one that didn't like pie! I'm glad I'm in good company. And what a great idea to turn pumpkin pie into a cobbler! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI had this same recipe at a party in the month of November. I thought it was fabulous! Even my husband who doesn't like pumpkin pie very much liked it. Yum.
ReplyDeleteI made this for my family's Thanksgiving and they raved over it! Thanks so much for sharing such an out of the ordinary treat that made me look much more talented than I actually am! :-)
