Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 g rolled oats
- 125 g all-purpose flour
- 100 g brown sugar
- 115 g unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 250 g strawberries, diced
- 50 g granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and salt. Mix well.
Pour the melted butter and vanilla extract into the dry mixture, stirring until a crumbly but cohesive dough forms.
Press about two-thirds (reserve the rest) of the oat mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust. Press it down firmly with your hands or the back of a spoon.
In a separate small saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook while stirring for 5-7 minutes until the strawberries break down and the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Spread the strawberry filling evenly over the oat crust in the baking dish.
Crumble the reserved oat mixture over the strawberry layer, evenly dispersing it to form the topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the strawberry layer is bubbling around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let the bars cool completely in the baking dish. Then use the parchment paper to lift them out and onto a cutting board.
Slice into 12 bars and serve. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
