I love most everything strawberry. What I like best will always be just a bowl of fresh strawberries and eating them without anything added, or maybe a little whipped cream. I do love a good cobbler though and thought strawberries would make a good one. Top it off with whip cream or vanilla ice-cream. Strawberries are the perfect late spring early summer fruit, so delicious. Fresh is always best.
Note: I tweaked this recipe slightly from the cooking video I made of this recipe. So, follow the recipe. My apologies.
Strawberry Cobbler
Ingredients
- About 7-8 cups of Strawberries, firm, not to soft
- ½ cup Butter
- ½ Brown Sugar
- 1/3 cup Sugar + 1/3 Sugar
- ½ tsp Vanilla
- 1 tsp Thyme, minced
- 1 ¼ cup Flour
- 2 tsp Baking Powder
- Salt, about ¼ tsp
- 1/8 – ¼ tsp grated Nutmeg
- ½ small Lemon zest and juice
- 1 cup of Milk
- 2 Tbsp Cornstarch
Directions
- Preheat oven 375 degrees.
- Cut up strawberries, in half if small, in quarters if large.
- Melt butter. Drizzle a little of the butter in an oven proof 9 x 13 Baking Dish. Let sit until cool.
- In a bowl whisk together flour, brown sugar, 1/3 cup sugar, salt and nutmeg. Add in vanilla and milk and mix until just combined. Then add in the remaining butter and stir until just mixed together. Try not to overmix the batter.
- In another bowl add the strawberries, lemon juice and zest and thyme. In a small bowl add the other 1/3 cup of sugar and cornstarch. Add the sugar mixture to the strawberries.
- Pour batter into the pan or baking dish. Spread out but do not stir it. Then add the strawberries all over the top of the batter. Bake for about 60 – 75 minutes until the batter is done. Insert a toothpick to check. Let cool.
- Serve with whip cream, vanilla ice-cream or another of your favorite toppings.
Enjoy … gathering around the table with family and friends.
