This Strawberry Cobbler is a quick and easy recipe made with fresh strawberries, pantry ingredients, and is ready in about 35 minutes. Serve straight from the skillet with a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet and transfer to the preheated oven to melt.
Meanwhile, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Stir in the milk, 1 cup sugar, lemon juice, zest and vanilla to combine.
Toss the quartered strawberries with 1 tablespoon of butter.
Remove the hot skillet with the melted butter from the oven. Carefully pour in the batter. Top with sugared strawberries and bake until golden brown and the batter has risen up and around the fruit, about 30 to 35 minutes.
Transfer to a rack to cool slightly. Serve with vanilla bean ice cream or lightly sweetened whipped cream.
