Ingredients
  

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds strawberries hulled and halved
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice fresh
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup rolled oats old-fashioned
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup vanilla ice cream for serving

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 350°F and lightly butter a 9-inch baking dish.
  • Toss the strawberries with granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla, then spread them evenly in the dish.
  • Mix oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl.
  • Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture forms moist, irregular crumbs.
  • Scatter the crumble topping evenly over the strawberries, leaving a few fruit pockets visible.
  • Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the fruit bubbles around the edges and the topping is deeply golden.
  • Cool for at least 15 minutes so the juices thicken slightly before serving.
  • Spoon warm crumble into bowls and serve with vanilla ice cream if desired.

Notes

Let the baked crumble rest before serving so the strawberry juices become spoonable rather than runny.
