How to prepare Strawberry Cobbler

- Bake: Bake until golden on top.
- Allow to cool: No burning of the mouth here! Let this baby cool for at least 30 minutes.
- Spoon it up: Spoon into serving bowls, serve scoops of ice cream and dig in!
Tips for the best Strawberry Cobbler
Upping the vanilla flavor: Vanilla and strawberries are gold standard ingredients when paired and if you have some vanilla bean paste or even some vanilla bean on hand, putting a teaspoon into the strawberries would only make this taste better!
Type of cream: The type of cream used here is thick double cream, if you use a pouring cream you might only want to initially use 150 milliliters / ⅔ cup of the cream and add more as needed due how much quicker the dough will come together.
How your dough should feel: The dough should be soft enough to pull apart, more closely resembling scone dough than pie dough.
Deep baking dish: The baking dish used in the photos was not deep enough for my cobbler and so the juices did overflow whilst baking, if your fruit comes close to the edge of your baking dish prior to the dumplings being placed on top definitely place a tray beneath your baking tray to catch those juices that will overflow.
