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.

Bake it. Scoop it. Savor strawberry sunshine. 🍓🥧✨
