Sounds great…I’ll have try this for sure
Is this supposed to be wiggly when you cook it in the oven? I cooked it 45 minutes using canned peaches.
It is just a little. I would just add a min at a time & keep an eye on it.
Hi-
If I wanted to make this into indiviual cobblers (ramekin), how would I break this down?
How much butter per ramekin and is the baking time the same?
Thank you.
I haven’t made this in individual portions, but that sounds so fun! I think it would depend on how many ramekins you are dividing it into. The baking time would be reduced since it would be in a smaller portion. I’d start with 10-15 minutes and then check for keep an eye on them. They’ll be done when the top is a nice, golden brown.
Very good and easy to make
