Strawberry Crumble Bars
Strawberries are my youngest daughters favorite fruit. Although, she really would eat any type of fruit, this is her ultimate favorite! So much so that when we go strawberry picking I have to bring an extra bottle water so that she can wash them and eat them right there and then! I don’t blame her though, they taste so yummy fresh.

What’s your favorite thing to make with strawberries?
These look delicious! Thank you!
My mother in law always made strawberries with sugar on them and would spoon them onto broken, and baked, pieces of homemade pie crust. Then she’d top it with whipped cream. She called it “strawberries and crust”.
She’s been gone since 2009, but I still make it for my husband.
Thank you Laurie! That sounds delicious as well and might have to try it out! That’s so sweet to have something special to remember her by. My father in law made the best homemade pasta sauce and I’m so sad he never had the chance to show me how to create the recipe, although we talked about it many times.
How much sugar goes with the strawberries and cornstarch?
