At the height of summer, strawberries are at their freshest. Use some of those to make a scrumptious strawberry cobbler for dessert.
Fresh strawberries are absolutely delicious. I love cooking them into so many things when they are in season. I’ve made strawberry muffins, strawberry shortcake, strawberry desserts, and strawberry drinks.
We made a blackberry cobbler last summer, but this year I wanted to try an easy strawberry cobbler recipe. We tried growing strawberries in our backyard and they never grew properly. Or the animals would get them before we could. When they come in at the store, we buy some fresh fruit every week.
Strawberry cobbler is a great way to use a bunch of strawberries to make a delicious dessert that goes a long way. It’s perfect for summer gatherings, especially when served with a little bit of ice cream on top!
Fresh vs Frozen Strawberries
For this recipe, I highly recommend fresh berries, especially at the peak of strawberry season when they have so much flavor. When you use frozen strawberries, they often end up adding too much liquid into a recipe. Then it gets soggy and the crust doesn’t set properly.
What Other Fruits Can I Use?
The base of this simple recipe can be used to make a variety of fruit cobblers. As I mentioned, we used blackberries in the past. You could also make blueberry cobbler with this recipe or raspberry. It would also be good as a peach cobbler or made with other stone fruits.
Strawberry Cobbler Step by Step
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (1 stick of butter)
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 cups strawberry halves
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 400F. Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish.
Mix the milk, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
Pour the flour mixture over the butter.
Arrange strawberry halves in a single layer in the baking dish on top of the batter.
Bake for 30-45 minutes in the preheated oven or until the cobbler crust is golden brown.
Slice into 12 pieces and serve warm strawberry cobbler topped with a little vanilla ice cream if desired.
Strawberry Cobbler Leftovers
Storage: It’s a good idea to let leftover strawberry cobbler come to room temperature and then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
Reheating: If want to reheat the whole thing, place it back in the oven at 350F for about 5 minutes, until warmed through.
Freezing: To freeze, move to a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
