Ingredients

Scale

Strawberry Filling:

  • 5 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch

Oat Crisp Topping:

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup butter, very cold and diced
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup rolled oats

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and spray a 9×13 inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Strawberry Filling: In a large bowl, combine the quartered strawberries, sugar, vanilla extract, and cornstarch. Mix thoroughly until the sugar is well dissolved and the cornstarch is evenly distributed throughout the strawberries.
  3. Transfer Filling: Pour the prepared strawberry mixture evenly into the sprayed baking dish.
  4. Make Crisp Topping: Add the flour, cold diced butter, sugar, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon into a food processor. Pulse until the butter pieces are roughly the size of coarse crumbs.
  5. Add Oats: Transfer the crumb mixture into a small bowl. Add the rolled oats and combine by pressing the oats into the flour mixture with your hands or a fork until fully mixed.
  6. Top Strawberries: Evenly sprinkle the oat crisp topping mixture over the strawberry filling in the baking dish.
  7. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the strawberry filling is bubbling around the edges.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow the crisp to cool slightly before serving to let the filling set. Enjoy warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
  • You can add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the strawberry filling for added brightness.
  • Make sure the butter is very cold to get a crumbly topping texture.
  • Use ripe, fresh strawberries for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Storage: Keep leftovers refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheat before serving.
