I took my son to pick fresh berries as a fun activity at Lewis Farms and was left with a whole bucket of strawberries! Throwing them into a cobbler makes for such a delicious and easy way to ensure they do not go bad before you can eat all of them. You really can sub any fresh berries of your choice and this is a great recipe to do with kids!
My son may have been more into the dirt than the berries but it sure was fun to see him learning something new! I highly recommend berry picking with family and friends and rewarding yourself with this delicious treat!

What You will Need
EQUIPTMENT
COBBLER INGREDIENTS
- 5 cups Sliced Strawberries
- 2 tsp Corn Starch
- 1.5 packets Kodiak Strawberries and Cream Oatmeal
- 1 cup Flour
- 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
- 3 tbsp Vanilla Bean Infused Maple Syrup or Regular Maple Syrup
- 12 tbsp Cold Salted Butter
- 1 cup Milk of Your Choice
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
TOPPINGS
- Vanilla Ice Cream
- Crushed Maple Brown Sugar Granola Bars
- Brown Sugar Crumble
Step 1: Preheat the Oven and Slice Strawberries
Preheat the oven to 375° F. Melt 8 tablespoons salted butter into a 9×13 inch baking dish by placing the dish in the oven to melt. It should take about 10 minutes.
Throughly rinse and slice strawberries, measuring out 5 cups in a bowl. Toss with 3 tablespoons maple syrup and 2 tsps corn starch. I used Vanilla Bean Infused Maple Syrup and it was delicious, I highly recommend!
Step 2: Mix Batter and Layer with Fruit in Baking Dish
In a separate mixing bowl, mix together flour, kodiak packets, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and baking powder. Use cheese grater to shred 4 tablespoons butter and add to mix with milk and vanilla. mix everything together until just combined.
Pour half the strawberries over the melted butter in the baking dish. Then, layer the batter overtop, do not mix. Pour the remaining strawberries on top of the batter. They may sink in and that is ok, do not mix.
Step 3: Bake for 55-60 Minutes
Bake 55-60 minutes, until the top becomes golden brown and the brown sugar carmalizes on the edges. I prefer mine a little more on the crispy side, as the inside is soft and gooey.
Step 4: Serve Warm with Vanilla Ice Cream
Scoop desired amount into a bowl and serve warm with vanilla bean ice cream and brown sugar crumbles. If you like more of crunch I would sub brown sugar crumbles for crushed Maple Brown Sugar Bars or granola or add a little of both! This is a dessert after all, let’s get crazy!
