Perfect for any occasion, it combines the natural sweetness of ripe strawberries with the warmth of cinnamon and vanilla, finished with a crispy top for a comforting treat.

Ingredients

Strawberries

  • 2 pounds strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste

Butter

  • 7 tablespoons unsalted butter

Batter

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine kosher salt
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven. Set your oven to 350° F (175° C) to prepare for baking the cobbler.
  2. Macerate the strawberries. Wash, hull, and halve the strawberries. Place them in a mixing bowl and stir in 1/3 cup sugar, fresh lemon juice, and 2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste. Allow the mixture to sit so the berries soften and become juicy.
  3. Melt the butter. Cut 7 tablespoons of unsalted butter into pieces and add them into a 9×13 inch baking dish. Put the dish in the oven to melt the butter while preparing the batter.
  4. Mix the batter. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually pour in the whole milk and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste, mixing just until combined to form the batter.
  5. Combine batter with butter. Remove the baking dish from the oven once the butter has melted. Pour the batter over the melted butter and gently smooth it out into an even layer.
  6. Add the strawberries. Using a slotted spoon, carefully place the macerated strawberries over the batter, leaving the juices behind in the bowl to discard. Optionally, sprinkle coarse sugar on top for additional crunch.
  7. Bake the cobbler. Place the dish back into the oven and bake for 50-65 minutes until the top is golden brown and crisp and the strawberry juices are bubbling.
  8. Cool and serve. Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for 15-20 minutes to set before serving. Enjoy it warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

  • For a deeper flavor, use fresh vanilla bean paste as indicated instead of vanilla extract.
  • If strawberries are not in season, frozen strawberries can be used but thaw and drain excess liquid first.
  • Ensure not to overmix the batter to keep the topping tender and light.
  • Coarse sugar on top adds a nice crunch but is optional.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated gently before serving.
