Ingredients for Apple Cobbler Just For Two

  • 1 medium apple (about 6 ounces), peeled, cored, and sliced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon + 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • All Purpose Flour
  • Oats
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon apple pie spice
  • 2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

How to Make Apple Cobbler Just For Two

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Spray two 5-ounce custard cups or ramekins with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. In a small bowl, toss the apple slices with the cinnamon and sugar. Divide the apples evenly between the two prepared custard cups. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of water over the apples in each cup.
  4. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, rolled oats, baking powder, brown sugar, and apple pie spice.
  5. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apples in each custard cup.
  7. Place the custard cups on a baking sheet and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving warm. Top with your favorite ice cream, whipped cream, or a dollop of plain yogurt, if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
