Recipe overview
*Full recipe below in recipe card*
Crumb topping: combine oats, flour, sugars, cinnamon, salt, and melted butter. Place the topping in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
Filling: Combine strawberries, sugar, orange juice, vanilla, and flour. Add to a baking dish.
Assembly: Crumble the topping over the fruit. Pinch some of the topping pieces together to form clumps.
Bake: Bake until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden brown, about 35 minutes.
Success tips
- Use fresh strawberries rather than frozen. They will hold up much better after baking.
- Cut the strawberries into similar sized pieces. I halve or quarter the larger berries and leave the smaller berries whole.
- Adjust the sugar based on the sweetness of your strawberries. The fruit can be sweetened with anywhere from 2-4 tablespoons of sugar.
- Mix up the topping first and place it in the fridge. It will firm up a bit while you are preparing the filling. This makes it easier to crumble over the strawberries.
- After baking, allow the crisp to cool slightly. The juices will thicken as it cools.
Serving and storage
Serve warm or room temperature topped with vanilla ice cream.
Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The topping will soften over time.
