This strawberry cobbler recipe is a classic Southern dessert that’s quick, easy, and packed full of flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup milk
- ½ tsp cinnamon optional
- 2 cups sweetened strawberries fresh or frozen
- 1 stick margarine
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Melt the stick of margarine or butter in a 2 to 2.5-quart ovenproof casserole dish while you mix up the batter.
- Mix all dry ingredients together, then stir in the milk until smooth.
- Pour batter over the melted margarine. Do not stir!
- Pour strawberries into the center of the batter. Once again, do not stir!
- Note: This is a little something that I do extra. You can do it or not. I always sprinkle about a tablespoon of sugar over the batter and strawberries before I put it in the over. It just makes it look like my grandmother’s cobbler because that was her finishing touch.
- Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until you can insert a knife into the center and peep into the cobbler. The batter should be cakey and not soupy. How is that for technical terms?
