47 Tasty Strawberry Recipes To Amp Your Taste Buds

As a child, I cherished the sweet aroma of fresh strawberries plucked from our family garden. My mother would carefully slice them up and add a hint of sugar to bring out their natural flavor at lunchtime. These juicy morsels would sit patiently on the counter until after dinner, when my mom would unveil the sponge cakes and Cool Whip. She’d artfully combine the sweet strawberries with the store-bought treats, creating an unexpected fusion.

While I adored the strawberries’ sweetness, I never quite warmed up to the sponge cake’s dryness or the Cool Whip’s artificial taste. In reality, I only feigned enthusiasm for the dessert, craving the strawberry-filled bites and hoping to discreetly discard the rest. To this day, I still recoil at the thought of consuming those artificial delights. Instead, when strawberry season arrives, I crave these simple, yet flavorful, treats.

Great Strawberry Recipes to Use This Spring

Strawberry Bacon Salad

While I’m not typically a salad enthusiast, this particular combination has won me over. The key ingredients in my favorite salad are spinach, strawberries, crispy bacon, caramelized onions, and a drizzle of sweet dressing. What sets this salad apart is the harmonious balance between the textures and flavors: the smoky saltiness of the bacon, the freshness of the spinach and strawberries, and the richness of the sweet dressing.

This delightful mix creates a satisfying and revitalizing mid-day snack that’s as healthy as it is delicious.

Strawberry Stuffed French Toast

Start your day with a burst of sweetness by incorporating strawberries into your morning routine. As a delicious and nutritious addition to various breakfast dishes, they’re perfect for a relaxing weekend treat. Take some time to unwind in the kitchen, sipping on a cup of coffee while you prepare a satisfying meal that will keep you going all day long – after all, it only takes about twenty-five minutes to whip something up!

Strawberries and Cream Oatmeal

Strawberries and Cream Oatmeal

This beloved breakfast dish holds a special place in my heart, as it was a staple during my childhood. While I initially relied on the instant variety, preparing it from scratch has been a game-changer. As strawberry season arrives, I take advantage of this opportunity to create my own dehydrated strawberries and homemade instant oatmeal. This way, I can savor the taste throughout the year, even as fall approaches and out-of-season strawberries seem like an indulgence.

Strawberry Jam

Strawberry Jam

As part of my culinary teaching curriculum, I have the pleasure of guiding students through the process of canning with them. In the spring season, we use this boil-water canning recipe to preserve fruits. The high acidity level in fruits eliminates concerns about botulism and foodborne illness, provided the containers are properly sealed and stored. This jam-making experience also offers a unique opportunity for students to share their creations as gifts.

Our class recently took it a step further by presenting one of our homemade jams to our new school superintendent as a warm welcome from the Family and Consumer Science/ Food department. The act of giving not only brings joy to the recipient but also reinforces the importance of community building and appreciation.

Strawberry Butter

When it comes to whipping up sweet treats that are ridiculously easy to make, strawberry butter is a game-changer. It’s as simple as taking those mushy strawberries and sugar mix from earlier, mashing them down until they’re smooth, then straining out the excess pulp. What’s left can be mixed with real butter to create a delectable spread. You can slather it on toast, an English muffin, or my personal go-to, a toasted bagel.

If you’re feeling extra clever, you can even portion it out into a container and stash it in the fridge for later. Just be warned: if others catch wind of its presence, it’s likely to vanish in no time!

Strawberry Pie

Strawberry Pie

It’s only natural to assume that strawberry pie is on the menu whenever fresh strawberries are involved. Thankfully, my mother has updated her approach, now incorporating strawberries into her first batch of the year – rather than relying on artificial alternatives like imitation sponge cake. While this is a welcome development, it does mean we’re separated by hours and I’m left to content myself with photo updates instead of indulging in the real thing.

Our growing season has its own unique rhythm, which means I have to plan ahead for when our local strawberries come into season.

This recipe’s simplicity is part of its charm – it requires just strawberry jello, sugar, fresh strawberries, and a pie crust, making it an ideal choice for busy evenings. You can prepare the filling while cooking dinner, then let it chill in the fridge before serving.

It’s the perfect way to round off a meal that’s been a bit too wholesome, with everyone having finished their veggies.

Creamy Strawberry Pie

If you’re like many people, including myself, there’s just something irresistible about creamy flavors. In the world of pies, this one is definitely a personal favorite. The recipe calls for golden Oreos, but I think chocolate ones would be an even better choice – and if they’re homemade or organic, so much the better! After all, they’ll be getting crushed up anyway.

Interestingly, this pie shares many ingredients with our previous strawberry pie recipe, but it takes things to the next level by adding whipped cream (or should we say, ‘whipping cream’?) and a tangy cream cheese element. Needless to say, I’m completely won over by this combination.

Strawberry in Drinks

Strawberry in Drinks

While this recipe can be adapted to various drinks with flavorings, I’m particularly fond of strawberry sweet tea and lemonade. What sets this recipe apart is its reduced sugar content, which is a welcome change. One modification that could take it to the next level is incorporating unexpected flavors like basil. The herb’s subtle freshness provides a delightful contrast to the natural sweetness of the strawberries, elevating the overall taste experience.

Strawberry Brownie Cheesecake

Strawberry Brownie Cheesecake

In my book, there’s no going wrong with a classic cheesecake. The idea of a brownie base instead of a traditional biscuit crust is intriguing to me. I can already imagine how the dense texture of the brownie would provide a sturdy foundation for this unique dessert. This concept inspired the creation of the Strawberry Brownie Cheesecake.

To elevate this treat beyond just topping it with sliced strawberries, consider incorporating diced fresh strawberries into the cheesecake mixture or layering strawberry jam between the brownie and cheesecake. These additions will further emphasize the sweetness of the strawberries.

No-bake Strawberry Cheesecake

For those who crave the creamy delight of cheesecake but seek a lighter or more time-efficient option, no-bake cheesecakes are the perfect solution. This recipe is my go-to method, having been my starting point and seeming the most straightforward to me. Perhaps it’s because practice makes perfect that I find this approach so appealing. The addition of strawberries elevates the dish, making it a fantastic treat for late spring and early summer gatherings.

Peanut Butter Strawberry Ice Cream Cookie Pizza

Peanut Butter Strawberry Ice Cream Cookie Pizza

The Peanut Butter Strawberry Ice Cream Cookie Pizza is another sharing dessert idea that’s perfect for gatherings. Its abundance of ice cream, strawberries, and cookie crust makes it a visually appealing treat that can be customized with your favorite toppings. The peanut butter and strawberry flavor combination will evoke memories of a classic PB&J sandwich, providing a comforting and nostalgic experience.

To add an extra layer of texture, don’t forget to sprinkle some crunchy cookie crumbs on top.

Strawberry Fruit Roll-Ups

I’m delighted to share one of my go-to recipes: homemade fruit roll-ups that my girls adore. Not only do they enjoy the sweet treats, but I also appreciate the quality control aspect – after all, who doesn’t love a good snack? The best part? It’s ridiculously easy to make! Simply combine fresh strawberries and sugar in a food processor until you achieve a silky smooth consistency.
Next, pour the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Spread it as thinly as possible to ensure even drying. Then, pop it into the oven at 170 degrees Fahrenheit until it reaches your desired level of dryness. Yes, it’s possible to get it too dry and end up with strawberry chips – but don’t worry, they’re still completely edible! The result is a delicious, homemade snack that’s perfect for on-the-go or as a sweet treat after dinner.

Strawberry Gummies

Strawberry Gummies

Gummies are a crowd-pleaser, reminiscent of fruit roll-ups. The joy is amplified when using small cookie cutters in unique shapes like stars, hearts, or bunnies – our collection will only continue to grow over time. The simplicity of this recipe belies its delightful results: puree strawberries and combine with prepped but unchilled Jell-O for a thin layer that sets perfectly. Once set, grease your desired cookie cutter with Crisco and cut out as many gummies as possible.

As an added bonus, enjoy the leftovers – after all, there’s no such thing as too much of a good thing!

Strawberry Sour Cream Scones

My daughter’s love affair with scones began several years ago when our family became regulars at a local coffee shop in the afternoons. The combination of the cozy atmosphere and the park nearby was the perfect setting for me to study while she developed her taste buds. She fell head over heels for the crumbly, sweet chocolate chip variety, and I couldn’t help but get caught up in her enthusiasm.

As the seasons changed, so did our scone preferences – blueberry in summer, pumpkin chocolate chip in fall, plain ones in winter, and strawberry in spring. When she expressed surprise at being asked to try making them at home, her face lit up with excitement. We eagerly pulled out a recipe and got cooking, anticipating the buttery goodness that would soon follow.

The result is a visually appealing treat with its pink glaze and multicolored sprinkles that’s almost too beautiful to eat – but we won’t judge you if you can’t resist taking a bite! While the loaf’s pink icing adds a playful touch, it’s also perfectly complemented by fresh strawberry slices or your choice of toppings.

What really sets this cake apart is its coconut-infused sponge, evoking memories of childhood treats. The harmony between coconut and strawberry brings back nostalgic moments for some, while others will simply appreciate the delightful combination of flavors and presentation.

Strawberry and Basil Tart

Strawberry and Basil Tart

The Strawberry and Basil Tart is a quintessential summer recipe that checks all the boxes for me. Its shortbread-style base provides a delightful textural contrast – it’s crumbly enough to melt in your mouth yet robust enough to hold the tart together. The pièce de résistance is the layered construction, where the strawberry sauce sits atop a velvety custard foundation.

This clever design ensures that each bite offers a symphony of flavors, as the sweet and smooth custard harmonizes with the sharp, sweet strawberry layer, while the basil adds an air of sophistication to the proceedings.

Strawberry Shortcake Macarons

Living in France for a year instilled in me an affection for macarons that I still cherish today. During my time there, I’d often treat myself to a few sweet treats with friends at a nearby upscale patisserie. The experience left an indelible mark on my palate and heart. When it comes to macarons, I have a soft spot for those featuring fresh fruit as the filling.

This is precisely why Strawberry Shortcake Macarons immediately caught my eye – the classic vanilla flavor allows the natural sweetness of strawberries to take center stage, creating a delightful union that’s hard to resist.

Strawberry Pop Tarts

Strawberry Pop Tarts

While I confess a weakness for Pop Tarts, my enthusiasm is tempered by their high sugar content. In an effort to mitigate this issue, I’ve decided to take matters into my own hands and bake my own Strawberry Pop Tarts. One of the advantages of making them from scratch is that it’s relatively straightforward to monitor the ingredients used, allowing you to enjoy a more informed snacking experience.

To add an extra layer of fun, you can customize your creations with vibrant icing colors and an assortment of sprinkles. For an added touch of indulgence, consider preparing your own strawberry jam as the filling, elevating these sweet treats to a truly special dessert.
