Strawberry Shortcake Crumble with Oreos
Juicy strawberries under a buttery shortcake crumble studded with Oreos, baked until golden and bubbling. The chocolate cookie pockets melt into fudgy vanilla richness. Perfect for summer barbecues or a cozy night in.
Equipment
- 9x13-inch baking dish
- Large Mixing Bowl
- Medium Mixing Bowl
- Pastry cutter or fingers
- Sharp knife (for Oreos)
Ingredients
- 2 lbs fresh strawberries, hulled and halved (or quartered if large)
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar (plus more to taste)
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the crumble topping
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 12 Oreos (regular or Double Stuf), roughly chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter a 9x13 baking dish.
- Toss the berries: In a large bowl, combine strawberries, 1/3 cup sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla. Stir gently. Let sit while making crumble.
- Make the crumble: In another bowl, whisk together flour, remaining 1/3 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add cold butter. Work in with fingers or pastry cutter until coarse meal with pea-sized butter lumps remains. Fold in chopped Oreos; reserve a handful for topping.
- Assemble: Pour berry mixture into dish. Sprinkle crumble evenly over top; scatter reserved Oreos. Bake 35-45 minutes until filling bubbles thickly at edges and top is deep golden brown. Tent with foil if browning too fast.
- Rest: Let cool at least 10 minutes before serving. Filling will set. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
Meal prep: Assemble unbaked crumble up to 24 hours ahead; add 10 minutes to bake time. Baked crumble freezes for 3 months; reheat at 350°F to re-crisp.
