When I saw this recipe in Paula Deen’s magazine I knew I wanted to try it. I grew up picking and eating strawberries, yet I do not remember ever having a strawberry cobbler. We ate peach, blackberry, and other types of cobbler, but never strawberry.
All I can say is I am so glad I found this recipe. Strawberry cobbler will definitely be a dessert I make again during the spring and summer.
Like most cobblers, this recipe is quick and easy to make. I think it is best served warmed with a little ice cream, but feel free to eat it however you want to.
I did change a couple of things in the recipe, but we love what I came up with. Sorry Paula, I just can’t leave a recipe alone.
Am I the only one that had never heard of strawberry cobbler? Have any of you had it before?
Strawberry Cobbler
- 2 1/2 – 3 lbs strawberries, sliced
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup quick cooking oats
- 1/2 cup flour ( I used a gf blend and it worked great)
- 1/2 cup butter
- In a saucepan combine strawberries and regular sugar. Let sit for 30 minutes.
- After sitting 30 minutes, cook over medium heat for 5 minutes.
- In a bowl combine cornstarch and water. Stir into berry mixture and bring to a boil.
- Boil 1 minute or until mixture is thickened.
- Spoon mixture into 8×8 or similar pan.
- In a bowl combine brown sugar, oats, and flour.
- Cut in butter to form a crumbly mixture.
- Spread evenly over strawberry mixture.
- Bake at 350 for 25-30.
- Best served warm with ice cream.

It’s new to me. But I’m really glad you posted this recipe. I’m looking forward to making it when the strawberries are here are ripe in a few weeks.
This looks delicious. I have tons of strawberries in the freezer that would work perfect for this. Yummy..

How in the world did I miss this? This looks amazing Lynn!

Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Thanks for sharing this! I purchased a 2 lb. basket of strawberries on sale so I just googled “strawberry cobbler” to see if there was such a thing. Sure enough – I found your recipe with oats (didn’t want a pie crust type cobbler). It’s in the oven now and I can’t wait to try it! I actually made two smaller versions since it’s only me and my husband and I’m freezing one – we’ll see if there’s a taste difference. Thanks again
@Aleah, I hope you enjoy this! I need to make it again. My family loved it.
Wow, I have never heard of strawberry cobbler. I just brought some fresh ones home from the store and I have to try this! I just wonder if I can use Splenda in place of the sugar. Would anyone happen to know??
Thanks so much!
This looks absolutely amazing! Thanks for sharing.
Made this Memorial Day, found it a little too sweet so next time I’ll be adding less sugar! Made a few changes and added it to my blog, sending them here to check out the original of course.
Fantastic recipe and will be making it again and again.
