Recipe: Strawberry Cobbler

Serve warm and top with vanilla ice cream or a generous pour of heavy cream. (Stacey Little / Southern Bite)

Y’all, this Strawberry Cobbler is probably my favorite cobbler recipe. It’s sweet, tart and full of lots of the cakey-cobbler that’s my favorite part of any great cobbler.

And I’ll admit that it’s pretty sweet. That’s why it’s good to cut the sweet with a little vanilla ice cream, or better yet, serve it warm with a little heavy cream poured over. So good.

Strawberry Cobbler

Prep time: 30 minutes

Cook time: 55 minutes

Serves: 6

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. fresh strawberries
  • 3 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar, divided
  • ¾ cup butter, divided
  • 1 cup brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and lightly spray a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Wash, hull and slice the strawberries.
  3. Combine strawberries, orange juice and 1/2 cup of the white sugar in a medium pot and cook over medium heat until sugar is completely dissolved.
  4. Pour into the prepared baking dish.
  5. In another bowl, combine the flour and the remaining 1/2 cup of white sugar.
  6. Use a pastry blender or two forks to cut 1/2 cup of the butter into it. It will be dry and crumbly.
  7. Sprinkle it on top of the strawberries.
  8. Soften the remaining 1/4 cup of butter and mix with 1 cup brown sugar.
  9. Drop into dollops on top of the flour mixture.
  10. Bake for 55 minutes to an hour, or until golden, bubbly and the cobbler is cooked through.
  11. Serve with vanilla ice cream or a generous pour of heavy cream.
