How to freeze strawberries in a few simple steps 🍓❄️

 

1. Choose firm, healthy fruit

Use only ripe, firm, undamaged strawberries.

 

 

2. Wash and prep

Gently wash the strawberries under cold running water. Remove the stems only after washing so they don't absorb water.

 

 

3. Dry thoroughly

Place the strawberries on a kitchen towel and let them dry completely – moisture causes ice crystals to form.

 

 

4. Freeze without sticking

Arrange the strawberries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and place in the freezer for 2-3 hours.

 

 

5. Store for later

Once fully frozen, transfer them to freezer bags or containers. Seal tightly and label with the date.

 

 

✅ Frozen this way, strawberries will keep for up to 6 months – perfect for smoothies, cakes, and oatmeal all year round!
