Step-by-Step Directions:
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350ºF.
Step 2: While the oven warms up, generously grease the bottom of a baking dish with butter. This will help prevent your dish from sticking, ensuring everything comes out beautifully. Once you’ve done that, set the dish aside.
Step 3: In a large bowl, combine the quartered strawberries, a splash of vanilla extract, cornstarch, and white sugar.
Toss gently until the strawberries are coated, then let them rest for 5-10 minutes before transferring to the greased baking dish.

Step 4: In a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour, packed brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, and cinnamon.
Drizzle the warm, melted butter on top and mix until you achieve a crumble. Evenly sprinkle the mixture over the fresh strawberries.


Step 5: Bake at 350ºF for 35-40 minutes, or until the strawberries are bubbling and the topping turns a golden brown. Let it cool a bit before serving—enjoy every bite!


🍋 Simply Made Tips:
- If the crumble is starting to burn, place a sheet of aluminum foil over it near the end of the baking time. Otherwise, continue baking.
