Ingredients

Filling:
  • 6 cups halved hulled strawberries
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Crumble:
  • 2/3 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 6 tablespoons large-flake rolled oats
  • 1/3 cup almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh lemon thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Method

Filling: In large bowl, toss together strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, vanilla and lemon zest. Scrape into 10-inch cast-iron skillet.

Crumble: In large bowl, stir together all-purpose flour, brown sugar, butter, oats, almond flour, lemon thyme and salt until mixture resembles wet sand. Sprinkle crumble evenly over filling.
