Strawberry Cobbler
Serves 6
- 6 cups fresh strawberries, halved
- ¾ cup sugar, divided
- ½ cup plus 2 Tbs. flour, divided
- 1 Tbs. lemon juice
- ⅛ tsp. baking powder
- ⅛ tsp. baking soda
- ⅛ tsp. salt
- 3 ½ Tbs. nonhydrogenated vegetable shortening
Serves 6
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat 11- x 7-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Toss together strawberries, 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbs. sugar, 2 Tbs. flour, and lemon juice in bowl. Transfer to prepared baking dish.
3. Whisk together remaining 1/2 cup flour, remaining 2 Tbs. sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in separate bowl. Add shortening, and mix well with fork until mixture is crumbly.

Adding the 1/2 cup of water part is wrong. Use only a few drops, instead.
Donald - 2011-05-25 17:20:30Hi Again I'm in a chatty mood tonight I guess. I have recently become aware that white sugar is processed over something called bone char, the burnt bones of cattle carcasses. (yuk) it supposedly polishes the sugar and makes it whiter. anyway my vegan friends tell me they won't eat ANY white sugar at all, i haven't eaten it for a few decades myself, only because i heard a health pro waaaay back in the 70's on t.v. say it was worse for the human body than cocaine. anyway i hope you folks will pass the bone char info along, maybe that will get people off this product that is so detrimental to our health peace jj

Mindy - 2010-08-02 11:52:39I made this for a dinner party and all of my guests loved it! It is not hard to prepare and even the kiddos at the table could not get enough.
Daphne - 2010-07-15 06:06:06This was really easy to throw together and I was so excited about it - until I took my first bite. It turned out too sweet and jammy for me. They berries were perfectly sweet and yummy before baking and the amount of sugar called for was just too much for the already sweet berries. I'm not an expert baker so I stuck with the recipe - next time I would use less sugar in the berry mixture.

Hi, Can I use butter instead of "nonhydrogenated vegetable shortening" ?
