Every spring, we’d pick strawberries by the bucket at the local farm. Mom would turn the juiciest ones into this comforting crisp that filled our home with warmth and love. The buttery topping, the bubbling fruit—it’s pure nostalgia in a dish. Whether you enjoy it warm with ice cream or chilled the next day, this recipe is a delicious way to celebrate strawberry season.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Filling:

  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

  • 2 tbsp cornstarch or flour

  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

For the Crisp Topping:

  • ¾ cup old-fashioned oats

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour

  • ⅓ cup brown sugar

  • ½ tsp cinnamon

  • Pinch of salt

  • ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×9 inch baking dish.

  2. In a bowl, toss strawberries with lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla. Spread into baking dish.

  3. In another bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add butter and use fingers or a pastry cutter to form coarse crumbs.

  4. Sprinkle topping evenly over strawberries.

  5. Bake for 35–40 minutes or until topping is golden and filling is bubbly.

  6. Cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Notes

  • Use ripe strawberries for maximum flavor.

  • Chill the topping mix briefly if it softens before baking.

  • Add a handful of chopped nuts (like pecans or almonds) to the topping for crunch.

  • Leftovers? Store in the fridge and reheat gently—it’s just as tasty the next day!
