Strawberry Cobbler 🍓🥧✨ Sweet, Juicy Strawberries Baked Under a Buttery Golden Crust
This strawberry cobbler is bursting with fresh strawberry flavor, baked until bubbly with a soft, golden topping. It’s simple, rustic, and the perfect dessert for spring and summer gatherings.
Ingredients (Serves 8)
For the strawberry filling
- 5 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved (or quartered if large)
- ½ cup granulated sugar (adjust based on sweetness of berries)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
Optional topping
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream
Step 1: Preheat oven
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 2: Prepare the strawberries
In a large bowl, combine strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla. Toss until berries are evenly coated, then spread into the prepared dish.
Step 3: Make the batter
In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in milk and melted butter until just combined. Batter will be thin.
Step 4: Assemble the cobbler
Pour the batter evenly over the strawberries (do not stir). The batter will bake up around the fruit.
Step 5: Bake
Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Step 6: Serve
Cool slightly before serving warm. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
Flavor Variations
- Mix in rhubarb with the strawberries for a strawberry-rhubarb cobbler
- Add almond extract to the batter for a strawberry-almond flavor
- Use brown sugar in the filling for a deeper sweetness
- Sprinkle coarse sugar on top before baking for a crunchy crust
Pro Tips
- If berries are very ripe, reduce the sugar slightly to avoid an overly sweet filling
- Let the cobbler rest 10 minutes before serving so the filling sets
- Use a glass or ceramic baking dish for even baking
- Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days — reheat gently before serving
Final Thoughts
Strawberry Cobbler is sweet, juicy, and comforting — a rustic dessert that celebrates peak berry season. It’s easy, crowd-pleasing, and irresistible with a scoop of ice cream on top.
