Ingredients

Topping:

  • cup old fashioned oats
  • cup all purpose flour
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar
  • cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted

Filling:

  • 5 cups halved/quartered fresh strawberries approximately 2 pounds
  • 1-2 tablespoons orange juice*
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2-4 tablespoons granulated sugar*
  • ¼ cup all purpose flour
  • vanilla ice cream for serving (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F with a rack in the center of the oven. Grease a 9-inch deep dish pie plate or similar sized baking dish. Set aside.

Topping:

  • In a bowl, combine oats, flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Add melted butter and stir until well combined. Place in the refrigerator for several minutes while you proceed with the filling.

Filling:

  • In a large bowl, combine strawberries, orange juice, vanilla, sugar, and flour. Stir gently until well combined. Scoop or dump into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the topping over the strawberries, pressing some of it together with your fingers to form clumps.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes, until the fruit is bubbling around the edges and the topping is light golden brown. Cool slightly, serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

*The sugar and orange juice in the filling can be adjusted based on how sweet and/or juicy your strawberries are. Really sweet strawberries will require less sugar. Really juicy berries will require less orange juice. Drier, less sweet fruit (like off season strawberries) will likely require the higher amount of sugar and juice.
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.
