Hey everyone! Amanda here from Old House to New Home sharing a recipe that I am SO excited about. Strawberry season is one of my favorite times of the year and I love creating new recipes with them. They taste so good straight from the fridge with a little sugar, served fresh over angel food cake, or even more deliciously, baked until saucy and warm and then topped with a soft and creamy biscuit!

The base of this cobbler is out of this world. You take fresh strawberries and mix them with a little sugar and vanilla, and then most importantly, add some nutella. The nutella and strawberries bake to combine the most delicious combination. The strawberry definitely has the forefront on flavor, with a subtle hint of the nutella in the background. You can definitely taste the nutella, but you don’t lose the strawberry flavor at all, which I think sometimes happens when you add nutella to a dessert.
Strawberry and Nutella Cobbler
While I love fresh fruit, I am definitely partial to the baked variety, because that usually means I am eating a pie, crisp, or cobbler! Growing up, fruit crisps were always in abundance because my Dad makes the best. We had them for dessert and was always the dish we took to potlucks or BBQs. One of my favorites that he makes is strawberry rhubarb because strawberries get so sweet and delicious when baked. The version I am sharing here with you today is seriously out of this world. With the addition of some nutella, this dessert is thrown over the top and goes from good to great. I look forward to a summer full of baking with fruit and hope you are too. And if you are baking, this Strawberry and Nutella Cobbler is the perfect place to start!
