It’s PEARfection! This cozy pear cobbler is everything you love about pie, minus the hassle! Think gooey, sweet filling that’s bursting with cozy nostalgia… that’s what this is! Plus, it makes a single serving super fast in the microwave—perfect for when that dessert craving hits!

I love that you can easily make one serving at a time… in the microwave… in a matter of minutes. (These 18-ounce Furmaware Porcelain Ramekins are perfect for this recipe and other single-serve desserts.) And feel free to swap in an apple if that’s what you have on hand. I sometimes like to toss in toasty pecans for extra crunch and nutty flavor. And I don’t need to tell you… a squirt of whipped cream seems to make everything better.

If you love a good single-serve dessert, I highly recommend trying out my Microwave Chocolate Mug Cake for a chocolaty fix, or my Microwave Apple Pie for another fruity favorite! They are quick, satisfying, and downright delicious.

This easy pear cobbler is perfect for a quick snack, a sweet treat after dinner, or even when you’re hosting and want to wow your guests with cute individual servings without spending hours in the kitchen.

You + this cobbler = the perfect pear.

No microwave? No problem! Single-Serve Banana Cream Pie!

Ingredients
 

  • 1 ripe pear, diced, skin on
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 cinnamon graham cracker square

Instructions
 

  • Add pear pieces to a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl, along with the cinnamon and maple syrup. Mix until well combined.
  • In a small ramekin or cup, create a slurry by mixing the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water. Mix until the slurry is smooth and no lumps remain. Add the slurry to the pear mixture and stir throughout.
  • Microwave the pear mixture for 1 minute. Remove and give it a good stir, then microwave for another minute. Transfer to a serving dish or large ramekin and allow it to cool for a minute or so. Sprinkle on the crushed graham cracker and dig in!
  • You can also garnish with optional whipped cream and toasted, chopped pecans.
