Strawberry Crisp Recipe
There aren’t many recipes that scream summer quite as effectively as a strawberry crisp recipe. I bet if you think about it hard enough, you can even smell fresh strawberries in your mind.
Our recipe for strawberry crisp is a classic with a twist. The bubbling layer of fragrant, juicy strawberries is topped with a brown sugar crisp that gets a little extra boost in the chewy and crispy department from sweetened, shredded coconut.
This easy crowd pleaser had my husband, kids, and our friends all raving about it. If you don’t happen to be the fans of coconut that we are, you can swap it out with an additional ½ cup of oats and ½ cup of flour. The crisp works works well both ways.
