Watch me make this fresh strawberry cobbler from start to finish!
Strawberry season is here!!!! Ok maybe I’m almost a little bit late here in NC but either way now is the time to take advantage of all those fresh, juicy, sweet strawberries that are on sale. My husband got me a big container full of strawberries and immediately I started thinking about ways to use them. We ate our fair share of fresh strawberries, made a quick berry salad, froze some for smoothies and now it’s fresh strawberry cobbler time!!
Cobblers are the best desserts ever. That golden, crisp top layer, the fluffy underside, and then that sweet, gooey fruit. Never had a cobbler? If you like fluffy strawberry muffins fresh from the oven then you are gonna love this strawberry cobbler. I mean, essentially that’s kinda what cobbler is only better. Once I get my hands on some fresh berries I always make a cobbler, it’s been a long time since I’ve had a strawberry cobbler though so I was super excited.
You gotta love the fact that they are so easy to throw together. I usually have the ingredients on hand to whip up a cobbler for dessert. Coupled with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and everyone is happy.
I always remember to double the crust mixture when it’s too late. That crust part is the best part of the cobbler in my house.

Notes
Any kind of berry can be used.
Be careful not to over stir batter too much. A few lumps is best.
Feel free to cut down on the sugar.
This was soooo delicious! We made with freshly picked berries! Followed instructions as written and this came out perfect. It was my first time making a cobbler so it did feel strange just dumping the strawberries on top of the batter in the pan, but oh my goodness it was amazing! Will definitely be making again, whole family loved it!
I made this in a 9×9 inch pan, cooked for about an hour. The edges were great, but the center very much undercooked. I can’t imagine using a smaller pan then what I used, but 15 ounces would be pretty tiny. I’m thinking the author made a mistake on the pan size? A 9×13 would have solved the mushy under cooked center problem.
Made this tonight and all I can say is compliments to Monique! It was absolutely divine. I doubled the crust part, baked in a 9×13 pan, and our entire family gobbled it up warm with ice cream. And there are just enough leftovers for my hubby and I to have some cold later. Yummm. This was my first recipe from Divas Can Cook, but there will be many many more. Great find!
I’m so glad you guys enjoyed it!
Super easy , super delious!! Thank you for sharing such a yummy quick receipe. I made sure to save it so I can make it over and over again!
This might actually he the best thing I have ever eaten. I was a little skeptical by the amount of baking powder but it made it more cakey and it was absolute perfection. I am making it again tonight with fresh picked raspberries.
