Ingredients

For the Strawberry Filling:

4 cups fresh strawberries rinsed, hulled and sliced
⅓ cup granulated white sugar
1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Crumble Topping:

¾ cup old-fashioned oats
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup brown sugar lightly packed
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup cold unsalted butter cubed

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish and set aside.
Place strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch and vanilla in a large bowl and gently toss. Transfer to the baking dish and spread in an even layer.
4 cups fresh strawberries, ⅓ cup granulated white sugar, 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1 Tablespoon cornstarch, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Mix the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt together in a separate bowl.
¾ cup old-fashioned oats, ¾ cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup brown sugar, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon salt
Use a pastry cutter or two forks to cut the cold butter into the oat mixture until coarse crumbs form.
½ cup cold unsalted butter
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the strawberries.
Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

If using frozen strawberries, increase the cornstarch by 1 extra teaspoon (no need to thaw the berries).
Add 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the topping mixture for extra crunch.
Store leftovers in a tightly covered container in the frig for up to 3 days. Can be eaten cold or warm up in the microwave.
