For The Cobbler Crust

•  1 Cup – All-purpose flour
•  2 Tsp – Baking powder

•  3/4 Cup – Whole milk, warm
•  1 tsp – Vanilla extract
• 6 TBS – Unsalted butter melted

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 375. F. Grease a 1.8-liter baking dish. (my oval dish was 11 x 8½ x 2)
2. In a medium bowl, add strawberries and sugar.
3. Stir to coat strawberries in sugar and set aside.
4. Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl to make the crust.
5. Add in milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
6. Stir gently, just until combined. (Do not over stir. A few lumps in the batter are OK)
7. Pour batter evenly into the dish.
8. Spoon strawberries evenly on top of the batter using a slotted spoon, leaving extra syrup in the bowl.  Do NOT stir.
9. Baked for 35-40 minutes on the middle rack or until golden brown. (you may need to adjust the time if using a different size dish)
10. Remove from oven and let cobbler rest for 15 minutes so that all the syrup can absorb.
11. Spoon into a bowl and top with vanilla ice cream if desired.
