Southern-Style Strawberry Cobbler
Ingredients
- 3 Tbs butter, divided
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup white sugar
- 2 Tbs cornstarch
- 3 cups strawberries, hulled
- 1 tsp chopped fresh basil
- 1 (8 oz) pkg refrigerated crescent rolls
- 1 Tbs white sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a 2-quart baking dish with 1 tablespoon butter.
- Bring water, 1/2 cup sugar, and cornstarch to a low boil, stirring constantly, in a saucepan. Add strawberries and basil and stir to coat. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish. Cut 1 tablespoon butter into pieces; dot on tops of strawberries.
- Unravel crescent rolls and rip into pieces, arranging them on top of strawberries as desired, adding as little or as much as you’d like. Melt remaining tablespoon butter in a microwave in a microwave-safe dish, about 10 seconds. Brush melted butter over crescent rolls. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar and cinnamon on top.
- Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until bubbly and golden, about 25 minutes, covering with aluminum foil for the last 5 minutes to prevent overbrowning.
