Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8x6-inch pan and line with parchment paper. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Cut in the egg with a pastry cutter. Gently knead the dough together until it just comes together. Set aside 1/2 cup of the dough for the crumb topping. (15 minutes)

03

Step

Press the remaining dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Spread the strawberry compote evenly over the crust. (5 minutes)

04

Step

In a small bowl, combine the reserved dough with the rolled oats and remaining cinnamon. Pinch off small pieces of the dough mixture and sprinkle them evenly over the strawberry compote, covering as much of the surface as possible. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are pulling away from the sides of the pan. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars. (60 minutes)

For best results, use very cold butter. This will help create a flaky and tender crumb topping.
If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour with 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder and 3/4 teaspoon salt.
Feel free to experiment with other fruit compotes, such as raspberry or blueberry.
Store leftover bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
