Strawberries are a popular fruit during summer, and we just love them! That’s why I created this delicious strawberry crisp recipe that is sure to please.

Top it with ice cream, and serve it during the hot summer months for a refreshing dessert.

What’s the difference between a strawberry pie and a strawberry crisp?

The main difference between a pie and a crisp, is the crust. A pie has a flaky pie crust, but a crisp doesn’t require any pie crust. Instead, its usually a pie filling with a crumble topping.

The benefit of a crisp over a pie is that it has fewer calories and carbohydrates.

How to make a strawberry crisp?

This recipe was created using my strawberry filling from my strawberry pie recipe.

Here’s what you need:

Filling:

6 cups strawberries (fresh or frozen)

1 1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 1/2 tsp lemon juice

1/2 cup corn starch

Crisp Topping:

2/3 cup old-fashioned oats

2/3 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 cup melted butter (unsalted)

Step-by-step instructions (with photos)

To start, you will work on the strawberry filling. In a large sauce pan, combine your strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Let this cook covered for 15 minutes, stirring occaisionally.

Then, remove the strawberries from heat. Let them cool completely before adding the corn starch. Mix well and then pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Next, in a medium bowl, combine the old-fashioned oats, flour, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk this together, and then add your salt and cinnamon.

Finally, pour the melted butter onto the cinnamon oat mixture. Give this a good stir with a fork, and it will start to turn crumbly.

Scoop your strawberry filling into a 9×9 baking pan or I like to use a pie pan.

Then, crumble the topping onto the strawberries.

Bake 350 degrees fahrenheit 36-38 minutes, rotating the pan half-way.
