Whenever I start a new project, I have to go through setting up the debugger with Eclipse time and time again before I can use it. Isn’t there a default setting for all new C projects I can change?

I’m not sure exactly what you mean by “setting up the debugger” (perhaps you can clarify), but under “Preferences -> Run/Debug -> Launching -> Default Launchers” you should be able to select your preferred launcher for different kind of launch modes. This can also be selected individually for each launch configuration.
Typically it is up to the toolchain and/or project to determine which debugger/launcher is suitable to use for that specific project, but I know there is a bug in CDT which prevents toolchains from properly specifying the default launcher to use.
