Strawberries are everywhere this time of year, and it’s perfect to eat them in the strawberry spoon cake recipe! This easy strawberry dessert recipe only needs ingredients that you probably already have on hand! This is so easy to throw together that I’m sure my 13 year old daughter could easily make this.

I’m sure you could also substitute in different berries like blueberries or raspberries if you have those on hand instead.

Maura says
Yes! BUT….I haven’t tried it with frozen. I’m assuming your cook time will be a bit longer. Or you could defrost the berries first and use the recipe as is. If you try it, come back and let me know how it turned out!
