Ingredients

🍓 1 1/2 cups strawberries, diced
💧 1/3 cup water
🍬 1/4 cup sugar
🌽 Cornstarch slurry (1 tbsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp water)
🌿 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
🍚 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
🌩️ 4 tsp baking powder
🍬 1/4 cup granulated sugar
🧂 2 tsp salt
🥛 2 cups buttermilk
🧈 1 stick melted butter

Instructions

1- Prepare Strawberry Filling:

In a non-stick pan, combine diced strawberries, water, and sugar. Simmer over medium heat until the strawberries are soft.
Stir the cornstarch slurry into the simmering strawberries, continuing to cook until the mixture thickens.
Add vanilla extract, stir, and then set aside to cool.

2- Make the Biscuit Dough:

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk with the cooled strawberry mixture to create a puree.
Pour the strawberry buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined; the dough may be slightly lumpy.

3- Prepare for Baking:

Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
Pour melted butter into a 9x13-inch baking dish, ensuring it covers the entire bottom.
Spread the biscuit dough over the melted butter, then gently swirl in the strawberry filling using a spatula or a butter knife.

4- Bake and Serve:

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the top is golden brown.
Allow cooling slightly before serving. Optionally, drizzle with a simple glaze or cream upon serving.
