Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Place the butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish and put the dish in the oven to melt the butter as it preheats. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Add the milk and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until a smooth batter forms, being careful not to overmix.
Once the butter in the baking dish has fully melted, remove the dish from the oven. Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter. Do not stir; let the batter sit on top of the butter.
Sprinkle the light brown sugar evenly over the batter in the dish.
Arrange the pecan halves over the top of the batter and brown sugar layer, spreading them out for even coverage.
Carefully pour the hot water over the entire mixture. The hot water will create a caramel sauce as it bakes. Do not stir.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden-brown and the edges are bubbling.
Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
