Our Nine Favorite Strawberry Recipes

Today is National Strawberry Day, and we’re celebrating by sharing nine of our favorite ways to bake with this vibrant fruit. From a berry twist on a nostalgic classic with our Crispy Strawberry Treats to a sugar-dusted Strawberry and Rosemary Shortbread, these delicacies are the best way to prepare for spring’s arrival.

Triple-Strawberry Pound Cake

Slice into this unassuming Triple-Strawberry Pound Cake to find a surprise berry-brilliant interior. In sweet shades of strawberry and vanilla ombre, this velvety Triple Strawberry Pound Cake is the epitome of the colors and flavors of spring.

Strawberry Swirl Cheesecake Bars

For a simplified, strawberry-rich version of our classic cheesecake, look no further than these streamlined cheesecake bars. One bite into one of these bars reveals a surprising chocolate crumb crust, packing a satisfying cocoa note to accompany the sweet-tart strawberry jam-swirled top.

Strawberry Shortcakes

We pump up the strawberry flavor in this shortcake by stirring in fresh and freeze-dried berries into the sweet biscuit dough and the tangy whipped Greek yogurt.

Strawberry Toaster Pastries

The jury is still out on whether these famed breakfast pastries are more dessert than breakfast food, but we’re happy to enjoy them any time of day. In this homemade remake, crumbly, slightly flaky pastry is filled with strawberry fruit spread and then topped with a simply sweet white icing and sprinkled with a rainbow of sparkling sugars.

Strawberry and Rosemary Shortbread

This herbal, crumbly Strawberry and Rosemary Shortbread turns a blush pink with a final dusting of Strawberry Sugar.

Crispy Strawberry Treats

Embrace your inner child with this throwback treat. Faintly pink with homemade Strawberry Marshmallow and studded with the bright, concentrated sweetness of Oven-Dried Strawberries, these chewy, crunchy squares offer a joyful update on a childhood favorite.

Glazed Campari & Strawberry Cookies

If you love a Negroni, this will be your signature spring and summer cookie.

Strawberry Poppy Seed Buns

Triple your berry intake in the morning with these richly frosted buns. Slathered with Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting and packed with poppy seeds and Strawberry Cream Cheese, these Strawberry Poppy Seed Buns are the splurge that you—and your strawberries—deserve.

Strawberry Sheet Cake

This Strawberry Sheet Cake is the trusty Old Reliable in our recipe box. With fresh strawberries and a light and fluffy frosting, this moist confection is quick to throw together and disappears even quicker.
