And it’s so delicious, our children wanted doubles.
The only thing you need to do is make sure you have the ingredients.
frozen strawberries
store-bought granola
vanilla ice cream
lotus butter
When we got this recipe from the Uhr sisters, we have to admit we were a bit skeptical. Didn’t seem like such a big deal. The truth is, we were pleasantly surprised. Everyone at our Shabbos table liked this dessert so much, they went looking for leftovers on Sunday.
The beauty of the recipe is that there is no prep involved, really. Sure, ideally you should slice the strawberries and have them ready in the fridge. But, life doesn’t always allow for prep. And this recipe is forgiving. If you forget, you are not left without a spectacular dessert.
But, back to that.
Once you have all the mentioned ingredients in your house, the rest comes so easy. You can prepare it right at the meal. (Although, we froze the one we prepared for the photoshoot and served it that following Shabbos and it was just perfect. So, it’s up to you to decide.)
Sometimes, we just don’t have a minute to prepare before, right? Or, sometimes, you have surprise guests. So, have these ingredients on hand.
So here’s what you do:
You can either work on a tray/platter/low bowl or individual cups.
Start by slicing the semi defrosted strawberries. Top with scoops of vanilla ice cream, followed by a drizzle of melted lotus butter.
(Either microwave for 30 seconds, or place in a bowl with hot water to soften. If assembling this on Shabbos, you need to place the lotus butter on top of your blech or cholent before Shabbos.)
Finally, top with your favorite granola (we like chocolate granola) and serve.
We can’t explain it, but you will see. This dessert will get rave reviews.
What do people allergic to lotus butter and nuts use instead?
Cookie butter probably
A different recipe 🙂
Can’t wait to try this!!
Does the texture make a big difference? I would like to blend the strawberries…
Also a PSA- one needs to be careful with the temperature of the lotus on Shabbos- being that it is going on top of the ice cream!
hi! this looks delicious!
can u use peanut butter?
Are frozen strawberries a problem to eat whole due to bugs?
I made this for Shabbat on Friday, and served it Shabbat day. Everyone went wild!! So so so good , and mag!!! Thank you! Looks like a new staple!
Good q. There is an issue – My family only eats a certain brand frozen strawberries, and only when they are completely blended. Others don’t eat them at all. Do your research well and ask your Rabbi.

Swap out the granola topping with Victoria’s crunch topping to take this dessert to the next level!
I also change it up a little and sometimes add frozen blueberries or sliced bananas to the mix and it tastes like an acaii bowl
Can’t wait to try this dessert!
Where is this scalloped dish from?
