Ingredients
  

Filling Ingredients
  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 3/4 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional) Enhances flavor
Batter Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (divided use)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, 1/4 cup of sugar, lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon of flour. Let this mixture sit for 10 minutes to release the natural juices of the strawberries.

  2. Add the melted butter and milk to the dry ingredients and stir until smooth.
Assembly and Baking
  1. Pour the batter evenly into the greased baking dish, then spoon the strawberry mixture over the top.
  2. Bake for 35–40 minutes or until the cobbler is golden brown and bubbling around the edges.
Serving
  1. Allow the cobbler to cool for about 15 minutes before serving.
  2. Enjoy it warm with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

Consider portion control for healthier serving. Suggestions include pairing with Greek yogurt or sprinkling cinnamon for added flavor. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
