Personal Pan Cobbler

There is nothing tastier than a berry cobbler just like Mom makes. I made this quick, single serving version the other day for a snack and it came out perfect. More of a crisp than a cobbler, this dessert has all key aspects of delicious, comforting food: crunch, sweet, and fat. Yum.


Preheat oven to 375'F. Place a cup and a half or so of blackberries (or blueberries or any other berries) in a small saucepan on medium heat with a tbsp. or two of sugar. Stir around a little until bubbling then remove from heat. In another bowl, stir together about 3 tablespoons of flour, a cup and a half of rolled oats, a 1/4 cup of brown sugar, and 1/3 to 1/2 stick of softened butter. Pour the berries into a small bread tin and top with the oatmeal mixture. Cook for 15-20 minutes or so until the topping is nice and browned. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
