Strawberry Cobbler

By Susan52

The citrus flavor of a bit of orange juice adds a nice touch to this strawberry cobbler. The 2-layer topping, finished off with toasty, buttery brown sugar.

Ingredients

• 1pound1 pound fresh strawberries
• 3tablespoons3 tablespoons orange juice
• 1cup1 cup sugar, divided
• 1 1/2cups1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 3/4cup3/4 cup butter (1 stick plus 1/2 stick), divided

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 2 1/2-quart baking dish.

Wash and slice strawberries; discard tops.

Combine strawberries, orange juice, and 1/2 cup sugar in a medium pot and heat until sugar is completely dissolved. Pour into prepared baking dish.

In another bowl, combine flour, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/2 cup butter; cut together. ( I used a pastry blender, but a large fork will work fine, too.) Spread on top of strawberries.

Soften 1/4 cup butter and mix with 1 cup brown sugar. Drop into dollops on top of flour mixture.

Bake 45 minutes to an hour, or until golden and bubbly. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
