DESSERT Easy Strawberry Cobbler

• total time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Ingredients

4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 tsp lemon zest (about 1 lemon)

3/4 cup all-purpose flour

3/4 tsp kosher salt

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

2/3 cup whole milk

1 tsp vanilla extract

4 cups strawberries, hulled and quartered

Directions

Melt the butter: Add the butter to an 8 x 8-inch baking dish. Set the baking dish in the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F.

Meanwhile, prepare the batter: In a bowl, combine the sugar and lemon zest by rubbing them together to release the oils. Then, add the flour, salt, and baking powder and whisk to incorporate evenly. Add the milk and vanilla extract and whisk until smooth.

Assemble: Once the butter is melted in the oven, about 4-6 minutes, remove the baking dish. Pour the batter into the baking dish with the melted butter. There is no need to stir. Add the quartered strawberries directly on top of the batter.

Bake in the preheated oven until the cobbler is golden and set in the middle, 45-55 minutes. Once baked, remove from the oven and cool for 15 minutes before serving.
