Blueberry Cobbler For Two
Blueberry Cobbler For Two is a warm and bubbly individual blueberry cobbler baked in two ramekins then topped with tender dough from scratch without cake mix or canned biscuits.

How is August almost over already?! I swear all I did was blink and POOF! Fall is right around the corner.
Every summer I say I’m going to the farmer’s market more often. Every summer I’m lucky if I make it twice.
Vacation. Busy weekends. Family emergency. Cat says no.
All reasons I’ve hardly gone this summer, but I’d be crazy if I let it pass by without making some sort of easy fruit dessert.
Much like my peach cobbler for two, this Blueberry Cobbler For Two is like a warm hug with its bubbly berry filling then topped with a golden brown, tender dough.
Everything is made from scratch, including the dough. I’ve seen cobbler made with cake mix or canned biscuits. Not here!
The best part is this blueberry cobbler recipe is ready quickly! All you do is toss the blueberries with some ingredients, whisk up a quick batter, then put together and bake.
Voila! Dessert for two ready in under an hour.

What is a cobbler?
Blueberry cobbler is a rustic fruit-based dessert with dough on top (as opposed to a streusel topping like you would find on raspberry crisp, apple crisp for two, or apple crumble for two).
By plopping thick, biscuit-like dough on top, it looks like cobblestone (hence the name cobbler). Sometimes you use biscuits, like I did for my Strawberry Shortcake Cobbler.
Other times it’s a pancake-like batter on top where you pour it then it sets up around the fruit while it bakes.
My blueberry cobbler for two is in between – you plop thick pancake-like batter on top. That means it has more of a cake texture than biscuits.
You can even use marshmallows like I did for Strawberry Smores Cobbler.

Best Baking Dish For Mini Blueberry Cobbler
To bake a small blueberry cobbler, I used two 6-ounce ramekins (affiliate link).

They’re very versatile especially if you bake for two often. Don’t have ramekins? Put my entire blueberry cobbler recipe into a 1 quart casserole dish (affiliate link).

Ways To Use Leftover Blueberries

Blueberry Cobbler FAQ
Yes, you can use frozen blueberries in cobbler! I recommend thawing then discard the extra liquid. Although you can use frozen blueberries directly, it may result in a runny filling which requires more cornstarch.
Yes, you can double this recipe and bake in an 8×8 pan for 20-25 minutes.
Yes, you can easily substitute other fruits such as raspberries, strawberries, or peaches.
You can let blueberry cobbler sit out overnight for one day, but I highly recommend refrigerating it after that because cooked fruit is more perishable at room temperature.
