Easy single serving blueberry cobbler recipe made with a handful of fresh or frozen blueberries and a few simple pantry ingredients.

If you've got fresh blueberries on hand, this easy blueberry cobbler recipe is for you. It's a made from scratch dessert where the blueberries really shine.
Why This Recipe Works
- This single serving cobbler is easier to make than pie. The berries are mixed with a little sugar and a touch of lemon juice which helps to create the sauce from the blueberries. There isn't a crust to make, instead the blueberries are topped with a simple batter which is drizzled over the top. As the cobbler bakes, the top browns and forms a crust much like a biscuit.
- You don't have to wait too long for the cobbler to cool before you dig in. I think a cobbler is best when it's warm from the oven. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and you'll be in dessert heaven!
- This dessert is made with pantry staples. No fancy ingredients are even necessary.
Filling Ingredients

How To Make This Recipe
- Prepare the filling: Place the blueberries in a small baking dish. Stir in the sugar and lemon juice.
- Make the cobbler batter: Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and milk and pour over the blueberries.

Expert Tips
- If you have an abundance of fresh blueberries, you can easily freeze them by placing them in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer until the blueberries are completely frozen. Then, transfer the frozen berries to a zip top freezer bag and store in the freezer for up to 6 months.
- Feel free to switch up the type of berries you use. Consider using blackberries, chopped strawberries, raspberries or a mix of them all!

If you were to use a 6 ounce ramekin could you just halve the recipe and it still work? Thank you!
It seems like it would work just fine. Keep an eye on the baking time. You may need to take the cobblers out of the oven sooner than indicated in the recipe.
I made a couple changes on this…I doubled it for 3 ramkins, which was perfect for what Ineeded. I added a tablesppon of pepared egg (in the carton) or you could use a tablesppon of a blended egg, and vanilla to the batter. Yes, topping with icecream takes it to the next level!
I’m glad you enjoyed the cobbler, Marla. Thank you for your feedback.
