Like Peach Cobbler, this dessert is best served warm and topped with scoops of vanilla ice cream or dollops of whipped cream. Who knew this dessert could be so good!
What is Cobbler?
Cobbler is a dessert with sugar-sweetened fruit baked with cake batter in the same pan. The batter threads its way to the top (looking like a cobbled street) as it bakes, delivering moist and melt-in-your-mouth tender globs of buttery cake in every bite. Cobbler can also be made with a biscuit-style topping (like I use in my blueberry cobbler recipe). Cobbler shouldn’t be confused with a fruit crisp; a crisp has a streusel-like topping with oats and at times nuts, fruit cobbler is made with a biscuit or cake-like layer. Making it a sweet, cakey, gooey dessert.
To Make Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler
The flavor options are endless for cobblers. Any fruit or berry that goes in a pie can also be used in cobblers. The combination of rhubarb and strawberry, however, produces a perfectly sweet & tart balance.
How to Store It
Like any baked dessert, strawberry cobbler tastes best served fresh on the same day you make it.
To Refrigerate: Leftovers can be stored tightly covered at room temperature for 2-3 days, or in the fridge for up to four days. Although you’ll find the cake becomes soggy, the cobbler will retain its amazing flavor. To Freeze: You can also freeze it for up to four months. To Reheat: Pop in the microwave for a few seconds, or in a 350°F oven until heated.
Slow Cooker Cobbler
Cobbler cooks up great in the slow cooker too. Just follow the same procedure to prep and assemble as the oven-baked version. Cook on high for 6 hours, or on low for 7-9 hours. What a great treat to come home to after a long day at work!
