By , About.com Guide

Baked strawberry dumplings are similar to a cobbler, made with fresh strawberries and sweet dumpling dough.

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 pint (about 2 cups) strawberries, hulled and rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Preparation:

In a saucepan, combine 1/3 cup sugar and the water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in vanilla extract.

In a medium mixing bowl, sift together flour, the 2 tablespoons sugar, the baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture is crumbly. Add milk and stir just until dry ingredients are moistened. Place strawberries in a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish; pour hot sugar mixture over strawberries. Immediately drop dough evenly in 8 to 10 spoonfuls over strawberries. Sprinkle dumplings with the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar (and a little cinnamon, if desired). Bake at 450° for 25 to 30 minutes, or until dumplings are lightly browned. Serve hot with whipped topping or ice cream, if desired.
Makes 4 to 5 servings.

So easy, so delicious!April 21, 2009By Jenna347
"I never thought of using strawberries in a cobbler-type dish, but this recipe is definitely worth trying. It's very easy to make and you probably have all the ingredients on hand. I served it with soy vanilla ice cream and everyone went back for seconds."
