Ingredients
  

Crust and Crumble Topping
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 cups rolled oats old-fashioned
  • 0.75 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter cold and cubed
Strawberry Filling
  • 4 cups strawberries fresh or frozen, hulled and sliced
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Equipment

  • 1 8x8 inch baking pan
  • 1 Large Mixing Bowl
  • Parchment Paper

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to easily lift the bars out later.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add the cold, cubed butter. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Set aside 1 cup of the crumble mixture. Press the remaining mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir gently to coat.
  6. Spread the strawberry filling evenly over the crust. Sprinkle the reserved 1 cup of crumble mixture over the top.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the topping is golden brown.
  8. Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting. For best results, chill for 30 minutes before slicing into squares.
