Strawberry Crisp Recipe
Description
The Strawberry Crisp Recipe combines fresh strawberries with a mixture of sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla extract to create a thickened, flavorful fruit base. The topping blends all-purpose flour, old fashioned oats, granulated and brown sugars, cinnamon, and melted butter, forming a crumbly layer that crisps up during baking. As the dish bakes at 350°F, the filling bubbles and the topping turns golden brown, providing a pleasing contrast in texture between the tender fruit and crisp topping.
This dessert is best served warm, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully. A scoop of vanilla ice cream on top adds creaminess and balances the sweet and tart notes of the strawberries. It makes a cozy treat suitable for any occasion where a fresh fruit dessert is desired.
Make sure to let the crisp cool slightly before serving to allow the filling to thicken adequately. The oat and butter topping provides a rustic texture that complements the softness of the cooked strawberries.
Ingredients
Filling:
- 5 strawberries hulled and quartered, fresh, heaping cups
- 1/4 cup sugar granulated white
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 Tablespoons cornstarch
Topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup old fashioned oats
- 2/3 cup sugar granulated white
- 2/3 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup butter melted, 1 stick
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a deep dish pie plate or large baking dish with butter or cooking spray and set aside.
- Combine the chopped strawberries and sugar in a large bowl and mix until the strawberries fully absorb the sugar. Add in the cornstarch and vanilla extract and stir until all of the strawberries are evenly coated. Pour into the prepared baking dish.
- In a separate medium size bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and stir well until well coated and crumbly. Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the top of the strawberries.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until fruit is bubbly and topping is golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream on top. Enjoy!
