Cobbler for Two

Small batch baking: The easiest recipe for a quick 2-serving dessert

There are many ways to make cobbler, but my favorite is with a chewy topping that’s reminiscent of a sugar cookie. Lucky for me, this kind of cobbler topping only takes a few minutes to make and is fantastic over pretty much any kind of fruit filling using fresh or frozen fruit.

I almost always have some fruit in the refrigerator and freezer so this means cobbler is always an option. Whether that’s a good or bad thing depends on your perspective and my perspective says that it’s very, very good.

However, unless we are sharing it with others, Steve and I don’t need an entire pan between us. (What we want and what we need are not always the same thing.) Much better to bake just enough for two servings.

When making a small amount of cobbler, it’s important to have the right kind of baking dish. These small single serving au gratin pans are perfect because they are wide and shallow enough for the perfect amount of filling and topping.
