If you’re looking for the easiest, most satisfying, luscious Strawberry Crisp recipe ever…you’ve come to the right place!
I woke up to rain. Rain that fell straight as spaghetti. A tiny rumble of thunder in the distance. Skies that were gray, but not too gray. The color of a shiny nickel.
The dryer tumbled clothes with zippers and buttons clacking for attention; and truly – everything felt right.
Felt like home.
I thought to myself – what taste can I create in this very moment to capture this feeling of home?
A fruit crisp….
A strawberry crisp.
Strawberry because I happened to have them in the fridge; though you could easily substitute any fruit that is your favorite, or like me, one that you have on hand.
What is more homey than oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and melted butter baking and wafting throughout the house?
Oh, I know – warm fruit with a crispy topping veiled in sweet whipped cream.
Buon Appetito!

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan.
