A quick and easy strawberry cobbler featuring a creamy cream cheese batter and juicy, sweet strawberries, perfect for summer treats and gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup milk (whole or 2%)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine sliced strawberries with 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Toss gently to coat and set aside for 10 minutes to macerate.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×9-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  3. In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese with 1/2 cup granulated sugar until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes using an electric mixer.
  4. Add milk and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture and mix until combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Gradually fold dry ingredients into the cream cheese mixture until just combined; do not overmix.
  7. Pour melted butter into the batter and gently fold until incorporated. The batter will be slightly thick but pourable.
  8. Pour batter evenly into the prepared baking dish. Spoon the strawberry mixture evenly over the top without stirring.
  9. Bake for 45-50 minutes until the top is golden brown and strawberry juices are bubbling around the edges. Tent with foil if browning too quickly.
  10. Let the cobbler cool for 15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.

Notes

Let strawberries macerate with sugar and lemon juice to draw out juices and thicken filling. Use softened cream cheese to avoid lumps. Do not stir berries into batter; spoon on top for classic cobbler texture. Tent with foil if top browns too quickly. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Cobbler keeps well refrigerated for up to 3 days and can be frozen for up to 2 months.
