Mini Blueberry Cobblers

It's that time of year again......


In honor of the initiation of summer, I decided to welcome back the blueberry! Oh how I love this little fruit...

Last Christmas, I was given a set of ramekins, and I've been scratching my head on what I can use them for. Well, after scouring the internet for recipes, the idea came to me....DUH! Why don't I make personalized cobblers? They were so simple to make, delicious, and I love how everyone had their own little serving!

For starters, I used 6oz. ramekins, so I used about 2/3c. of fresh berries. I dusted them with some sugar, and set them in the fridge to let them soak and make their own syrup.


Meanwhile, I made the crumb topping. I half invented the recipe, but really, it's very basic. I used 1/4c. flour, 1/2c. dry oats, 1/4c. brown sugar, 1tsp. cinammon, and 1/2 stick of butter. I cut the cold butter in until I had a nice crumbly mixture.

Top off your dishes with the topping........

And bake in a 375F oven for about 20 minutes of until you see that the tops are golden brown, and somewhat crispy.

After removing them, you might want to let them cool a little bit, but personally, I think the best way to eat these is piping hot with a nice scoop of icey cream on top!

Oh, how I love summer and all that it brings!

Happy Cooking!
