Ahh fresh strawberries. So juicy and delicious.

And perfect for making a fresh strawberry crisp!

This crisp is naturally gluten free + vegan, sweet without being cavity inducing, and full of fresh juicy summer strawberries.

how to make strawberry crisp

First, cut up two pounds of strawberries.

My strawberries were average size, so I simply halved them. For larger strawberries, you could cut them into quarters.

Toss your cut strawberries with sugar, cornstarch (this helps the crisp filling to thicken), salt, and fresh lemon juice.

Stir and set aside to let the flavors start soaking together.

Once you have done this step, it’s time to make the crisp topping!

The topping for this strawberry crisp is naturally gluten free thanks to oats and oat flour!

All you need for the crisp topping is: brown sugar, oat flour, rolled oats, salt, and melted vegan butter (or real butter, if you prefer).

If you don’t have any oat flour, you can make it yourself by grinding up oats in the blender until it forms a flour.

I do this anytime I don’t have store bought oat flour on hand.

This strawberry crisp only took me around 15 minutes to prep!

I like to bake my crisp recipes in a pie plate (they fit perfectly!), but any small sized baking dish works just fine.

Bake at 350 degrees until hot and bubbly.

Serve warm with a scoop (or two) of vanilla ice cream!

So perfect, so delicious.

Hi! Looks great, can't wait to try. I have strawberries that are frozen, I picked them fresh last year and froze them. Have you tried using frozen strawberries? If so, is there anything I should alter in the filling?

I haven't tried it for this recipe, but I do have several other crisp recipes that use frozen fruit on my blog. The only difference is you will let the filling sit and thaw a few minutes so that it mixes together properly with the sugar and corn starch.
