Ingredients
  

For the filling

  • 5 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered Use ripe strawberries for the best flavor
  • 1/4 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Real vanilla enhances the flavor
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch Helps thicken the filling

For the topping

  • 1 cup all purpose flour Can be substituted with gluten-free flour
  • 3/4 cup old fashioned oats For best texture, avoid quick oats
  • 2/3 cup granulated white sugar
  • 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted Use real butter for better flavor

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a deep dish pie plate or large baking dish with butter or cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chopped strawberries and 1/4 cup of sugar, mixing until the strawberries absorb the sugar.
  • Add the cornstarch and vanilla extract to the strawberries and stir until evenly coated. Pour into the prepared baking dish.
  • In a separate medium-sized bowl, mix the flour, oats, brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, and cinnamon together.
  • Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture is well coated and crumbly.

Baking

  • Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the top of the strawberries. Lightly press in a few spots to form larger clusters.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, until the fruit is bubbly and the topping is golden brown.
  • Allow to cool slightly before serving. For clean slices, wait 15-20 minutes before cutting.

Notes

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream on top for an excellent contrast. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
