Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
  • 6 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
  • ⅓ cup plus 1⁄4 cup granulated sugar, divided
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • ¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream, divided
  • 2 tablespoons coarse sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375°. In a large bowl, combine strawberries, 1⁄4 cup granulated sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Spoon mixture into a 9-inch enamel-coated cast-iron skillet.
  2. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining 1⁄3 cup granulated sugar. Using a pastry blender or 2 forks, cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Stir in 3⁄4 cup cream until dough comes together.
