or freeze them for making instant 'icecream', although I realise that is not actually baking with strawberries - it's a great use for any strawberry abundance though.:-))

White chocolate & strawberry cake. Look for the White Mississippi Mud cake recipe in the search on the left. Add strawberries just before putting mixture in the oven.

I'd make a sponge roll and fill it with sliced strawberries and whipped cream.

Strawberry & rhubarb crumble. Delicious

http://www.annabel-langbein.com/cooking/recipes/recipe/!id=410 this Strawberry Cloud Cake is fantastic, so easy and keeps well in a container in the freezer. Just Slice and serve. To can cut down the sugar to 1/2-3/4 cup as it is very sweet.

on TV this morning Jp Seagar was doing muffins with strawberry in them

Strawberry Tart
250g plain flour
80g icing sugar
125g butter, chopped
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1 egg, beaten lightly
500g strawberries, halved
1/3 cup strawberry jam, warmed, sieved
1 tablespoon hot water

Creme patissiere
250ml cream
250ml milk
110g caster sugar
1 vanilla bean, split lengthways
2 eggs
50g cornflour
80g butter, chopped

Sift the flour and icing sugar into a medium bowl. Rub in the butter then stir in the rind and egg; mix to a firm dough. Knead dough gently on a lightly floured surface until smooth, cover pastry with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Roll pastry between two sheets of baking paper until large enough to line a 24cm loose-based flan tin. Lift pastry into tin; press into side, trim edge. Cover, freeze pastry for one hour.

Preheat the oven to moderately hot (200°C). Cover the pastry with baking paper, fill with dried beans or rice. Place the tin on an oven tray. Bake in a moderately hot oven for about 20 minutes. Remove paper and beans and reduce the oven temperature to moderately slow (160°C), bake about 15 minutes or until browned; cool.

Spread the creme patissiere into the pastry case, top with strawberries. Brush the strawberries with combined jam and water.

For the creme patissiere, bring the cream, milk, sugar and vanilla bean to the boil in a medium saucepan. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl, then whisk in the sifted cornflour. Gradually whisk in warm milk mixture. Return the mixture to the pan and stir over a medium heat until the mixture boils and thickens. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. Cover the surface with plastic wrap and cool to room temperature.

Strawberry and chocolate ribbon pie -
CRUMB CRUST
2 1/2 Cups of crushed double chocolate fudge biscuits (I use farmbake)
3 T Butter or Marge melted
2 T packed brown sugar

CHOC RIBBON
1/2 Cup whipping cream
1 Cup choc melts (milk or dark)

STRAWBERRY FILLING AND GLAZE
2 - 3 punnets ripe strawberries, rinsed and hulled
1 Cup Sugar
1/4 Cup Cornflour
1/2 Cup Water
1/3 Cup Strawberry Jam
2 T Lemon Juice

Crust: Lightly grease a pie plate. Process biscuits, butter and sugar in a food processer until finely crushed and mixture is moistened. Press over bottom and sides of pie plate, place in freezer to firm crust while proceeding.
2) Chocolate Ribbon: Heat cream in small pot or microwave just until steaming hot. Remove from heat and add choc melts. Let stand for 2 mins for melts to melt, then stir until thick and smooth. Spread over bottom of crust. Refrigerate or put in freezer to set choc
3) Filling and Glaze: Whisk Sugar, Cornflour, Water, Jam and Lemon Juice in a medium pan until blended. Add 1 cup of berries and mash with a potato masher. Stirring constantly

Another thing you could do with your strawberry glut if you can't eat them all fresh, is to make stewed rhubarb and strawberry. Cut young rhubarb stalks into inch long chunks. Add sugar to the pan and gently cook till the rhubarb is soft. Don't walk away from the stove as the pan may "catch' with the sugar in the recipe. Just before the rhubarb has completely softened, stir in some strawbs (cut up if big ones). Leave to cool. I put it into pots to freeze. When strawb season has finished, it is nice to have on muesli and yoghurt for breakfast.
