Description
Strawberry Oatmeal Crumble Bars are a sweet and wholesome treat combining a delightful crust with a luscious strawberry filling.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 2 cups coarsely chopped fresh strawberries
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square pan with aluminum foil and spray it with cooking spray.
- Melt the butter in a large, microwave-safe bowl for about one minute on high power.
- Add the flour, oats, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and optional salt to the melted butter. Mix until you get a dry, sandy mixture.
- Set aside 1 heaping cup of this mixture for crumble topping. Transfer the remaining mixture to the prepared pan and press it down evenly as the crust.
- Combine chopped strawberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch in another bowl. Toss gently until strawberries are coated.
- Pour the strawberry mixture over the crust, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the reserved crumble topping on top.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Let cool completely before slicing.
Notes
Serve with vanilla ice cream or chilled for a refreshing snack. Wrap in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container for freshness.
