Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Wash strawberries, hull, and slice them. Place in a bowl. Optionally, sprinkle with sugar and let macerate for 10-15 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip until soft peaks form. Set aside.
- In another bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add softened butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread sliced strawberries evenly in a serving dish.
- Top the strawberries with the crumble mixture, distributing it evenly.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crumble is golden brown.
- Let cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature, topped with whipped cream.
Notes
- For extra sweetness, sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar over the strawberries and let them macerate for 10-15 minutes.
- Chill your bowl and beaters when whipping cream for extra fluffiness.
- Consider adding lemon zest or almond extract to the whipped cream for a flavor boost.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat in the oven to crisp the crumble.
