There are times where I get a craving for something and I won't be satisfied until I get it. I had a huge craving for a strawberry crumble or crisp - I wasn't sure which. So off I went in search of a recipe. And you'd think amongst the plethora of cookbooks I have, I'd find a recipe but nooooooooooooo. I came up with nothing. I searched my usual places online and still came up with diddly squat. Zero - nothing. Finally, I was about to give up and stomp away like a five year old and go pout, I found one! A strawberry crumble! The angels sang! I was so happy! And, just as luck would have it, I happened to have everything in my pantry for it! Even better!! Happy Jamie!!! And it has to be one of the easiest recipes I've ever seen. I was able to recite it from memory for my mom the following Monday. The ingredients are ones we all have in our pantry so if you don't make this very, very soon, you should be ashamed. And don't have strawberries? That's okay, you can substitute any fresh fruit for this quick and easy crumble!!
Strawberry Crumble
recipe courtesy of The Second Lunch (adapted from the cookbook Animal, Vegetable, Miracle)
1 quart strawberries (halved or quartered, depending on size)
1/4 c. Honey
Crumble Topping:
1/2 c. Flour (KAF)
1/2 c. Rolled/Old Fashioned Oats (Quaker)
1/2 c. Brown Sugar
3/4 tsp. Cinnamon
1/3 c. Butter (leave it set out for around 15 minutes to make it easier to handle)
Preheat oven to 350.
Combine strawberries and honey in an 8x8 pan or a deep dish pie plate and set aside.
Mix all ingredients for the crumble topping in a separate bowl, using your hands.
Sprinkle over the fruit and honey mixture.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes (or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is nice and bubbly around the edges).
Serve warm!!
