This is my new favorite fruit dessert. I served it over vanilla ice cream & it was loved by all of us, including our guests. I used 3 cups of strawberries & 1 cup blueberries, half the water, 1 & 1/2 T. cornstarch, a bit more sugar - And sprinkled sliced almonds & sugar on top. YUM!

I love the aroma of fresh strawberries especially when it's baking in the oven, just that I think water should be cut down as it turns out a little runny and it wasn't sweet enough.

Great recipe. Definitely cut back on the water to 1/2 cup. I added bluberries for a nice treat, however, I found the biscuit topping to be a little thick. Maybe I will thin it out next time.

WOW! I wish I could give this more than 5 stars! My husband said, "This is definitely, hands down the best dessert you've ever made." and I have made a ton. I used a scant 1/2 c. sugar with a Tbsp. cornstarch. Next time I would use a little more cornstarch. I also added 2 cups of blueberries (which could be why I needed more cornstarch). I used 1 1/2 the ingredients for the topping (we like a lot of topping). This was fantastic! I can't wait to make it again. Yummm!

Very Good! When I make it again, I will add more berries, but I am a "berry" kind of person.

Good recipe. I topped it off with whipped cream...yum! I do agree with other reviewers in terms of cutting down the amount of water and, next time, I will increase the amount of the flour mixture. It was good and I'd like it with every bite.

I made this once before and remembered that it was a little too sweet. Another review suggested lemon juice. PERFECT! It gave it a slightly tart and sweet taste. Oh man this was to die for. I also made the crust with milk instead of cream, like another reviewer suggested. Very good!

Great comfort food. Delicious and easy, quickly in the oven in just minutes. Also, easily versatile for using other fruits or berries. I used half the water, and double the amount of cornstarch. I also added a few drops of red food coloring for more vivid color. I also sprinkled the biscuit topping with demerara sugar. It worked out perfectly. Next time however, I plan to up the sugar to 1-1/2 T. and reduce the salt to 1/4 tsp. I found the topping could have been a little sweeter and at the same time I detected the salt more than I liked. All around, a delicious, homespun dessert. Loved it.

this recipe was terrific i used Strawberries and kiwi. i am watching my sugar so a note to others this tranlates wonderfully to a no sugar dessert, just use splenda instead of sugar. I also used whole wheat flour and Low fat milk instaed of cream. Still makes a wonderful crust. I will make this again for sure.

I wouldn't change a thing! I did not have any heavy cream so I added a tablespoon of shortening and used 2% milk and the biscuit topping was perfect. I used frozen whole strawberries. This is perfect with vanilla ice cream because the liquid makes a great topping for the ice cream! Just like my Mamaw used to make when I was growing up!

I stuck to the recipe and it turned out really well. Any berry or berry combo would work with this. It was best warm from the oven as the topping lost its crispness with time. I like the bread part so I might double that part next time. I will make it again and try differant berries.

I made a few changes to this recipe, based on the suggestions of other reviewers, and it turned out very good. I used four pounds of strawberries, and instead of the cup of water in the recipe, I used the juice from one lemon. I tossed the strawberries with the lemon juice, a cup of sugar (I would use a bit more next time, maybe 1.5 cups), and about two and a half tablespoon of cornstarch. I doubled all the ingredients for the topping. I baked it at 400 for 25 minutes, but 22 or 23 would have been better.

I followed other reviews by decreasing the amount of water (1/2 cup) and increasing the amount of berries (to cover the bottom of a 9x13 pan). I will continue to decrease the amount of water but next time I will double the cornstarch. The biscuits where perfect. Love the texture and flavor. Just wish that the juices had been a bit thicker. Overall a very good recipe that I will make again.
