Mixed Berry Cobbler Mug

# What You Need:

01 - 1/2 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen; e.g., blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries)

02 - 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

03 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

04 - 1/4 teaspoon baking powder

05 - Pinch of salt

06 - 2 tablespoons milk

07 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

08 - 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

09 - 1/4 teaspoon coarse sugar or brown sugar

01 - Lightly grease a large microwave-safe mug (12–14 oz).

02 - Place the mixed berries into the mug. Chop large berries into bite-sized pieces if needed.

03 - In a small bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined.

04 - Stir in milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract into the dry mixture until smooth.

05 - Spoon the batter evenly over the berries in the mug without stirring.

06 - Sprinkle coarse sugar or brown sugar on top if desired.

07 - Microwave on high for 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes until the topping is set and berries are bubbling.

08 - Allow to cool for 2 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream.

01 -

You can make it in less time than it takes to preheat an oven, and theres only one dish to wash.
The berries get jammy and sweet while the batter puffs up into something that actually tastes like real cobbler, not a sad microwave experiment.

02 -

Dont overfill the mug or the batter will overflow in the microwave, and youll spend five minutes wiping purple splatters off the turntable.
If your berries are very tart, add an extra teaspoon of sugar to the batter or youll end up with a dessert that tastes more like breakfast.

03 -

Let the butter cool for a few seconds before mixing it in, or it can cook the batter and make it lumpy instead of smooth.
If the top looks done but the berries arent bubbling yet, give it another 15 seconds, underdone batter tastes gummy and sad.
