Equipment

  • Mixing Bowls
  • baking dish

Ingredients
  

Filling

  • 2 pounds fresh strawberries hulled and halved
  • 1 cup granulated sugar divided ⅓ cup for macerating, ⅔ cup for batter

Batter

  • 9 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1.25 cups milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the strawberries and ⅓ cup of sugar. Set aside to macerate.
  • Add the butter to a 13x9-inch baking dish and place in the preheated oven until the butter is melted, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining ⅔ cup of sugar. Add the milk and vanilla extract, and stir just until combined.
  • Carefully remove the baking dish from the oven and pour the batter over the melted butter. Spoon the strawberries over the batter, leaving any extra liquid in the bottom of the bowl and discarding it.
  • Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until the batter is golden brown and the strawberry juices are bubbling. Let cool for 15 minutes. Serve with vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Notes

To hull a strawberry, insert the tip of a small knife into the top of the strawberry at an angle and then rotate the berry until you can pull the stem out. Some of the butter may float to the top and not reabsorb until the cobbler is almost done. If your strawberries are not very sweet or juicy, double the amount of sugar when you macerate the berries. If you do not have a baking dish, you could use a large cast-iron skillet instead. If you are concerned that your dish will bubble over, place a sheet pan on the oven rack under the cobbler. Do not skip letting the strawberry cobbler cool before cutting.
