Use cold butter for the crumble topping

[{"selector":"#anim-44da1dd6-28dc-4923-a039-90ea4906c15c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-22c220d2-cd02-4dd6-8e07-a4364a278ae3","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-122.5641%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Tip #1 Cut the butter into small cubes and use your hands to work it into the dry ingredients. Squeeze the mixture together until clumps form.

Use fresh strawberries

[{"selector":"#anim-fbb06d29-2f98-4621-be31-f27ef87bc9d7","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-cc6680fb-1453-4f38-ae36-d7f6c283c2e8","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-122.5641%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Tip #2 Frozen strawberries will become overly mushy while baking, so stick to fresh (or at least only a few days past their prime) strawberries.

don't skimp on the crumble

[{"selector":"#anim-e60627eb-f1d9-4d1f-8f58-18c59d9bc7da","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-6706eda9-28b0-4a27-a20b-f3c9f20f4a1e","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-122.5641%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Tip #3 Although it may seem like an excessive amount, trust me on this - we tested several crumble to strawberry ratios and this version was the clear winner.

bake at a lower temperature

[{"selector":"#anim-c37b1d67-bbb7-4db6-b3b1-cc1cd7012aac","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c53783c3-dde2-4917-8c0a-2edd6966bfdd","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-122.5641%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Tip #4 To prevent the topping from browning too quickly before the strawberries have sufficiently broken down, we bake the crumble at 350°F (180°C).

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream

[{"selector":"#anim-b3ffa665-fd22-495a-88eb-9f3eada69b89","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-91123806-e6c3-4df3-8782-cb731d65381b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-122.5641%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Tip #5 Let the crumble sit for 10 minutes to set up and then serve with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream!
