    This strawberry shortcake crumble might be the easiest recipe on the blog, and if you're a frequent visitor here, you know that easy recipes are hard to come by. My true passion lies in baking recipes that challenge your skills and require careful technique. But I'm not gonna lie - I do love a good quick & simple recipe that just hits the spot. And that's exactly what this recipe is. It takes maybe 15 minutes (and that includes cleanup time!) to throw together, and is just absolutely delicious topped on your favorite vanilla ice cream. So if you were a fan of those Good Humor strawberry shortcake ice cream bars, you NEED to make this recipe!

    Ingredients

    This strawberry shortcake crumble is made with just 5 ingredients: golden oreos, freeze dried strawberries, salt, melted butter, and vanilla. 

    ingredients for strawberry shortcake crumble
    • Golden Oreos: I recommend using golden oreo thins for smaller filling to cookie ratio, but you can absolutely use regular golden oreos if you'd like.
    • Freeze Dried Strawberries: You'll need about 28g or 1 oz of freeze dried strawberries. This equals about 1 cup, but since freeze dried strawberries come in all different shapes and sizes, they are difficult to measure by volume. If possible, use a kitchen scale to a get an accurate measurement.
    • Kosher Salt: Do not skip the salt! It is essential to balancing out the sweetness and amplifying the flavors.
    • Unsalted Butter: You'll need about 4 tablespoon of unsalted butter, melted.
    • Vanilla: Vanilla extract rounds out the flavor and gives it that classic nostalgic flavor we're looking for.

    FAQ

    Can I use regular golden oreos?

    I recommend using golden oreo thins for smaller filling to cookie ratio, but you can absolutely use regular golden oreos if you'd like.

    Do I have to use a food processor?

    For ease and simplicity, I would recommend it. But you can also place all of the ingredients in a double lined ziplock bag and use a rolling pin to crush them until they reach the desired crumb size.

    How to store this strawberry shortcake crumble?

    Store leftovers in a glass jar at room temperature for up to one week.

    Baking in grams

    All of the recipes on this blog are carefully developed to create incredibly delicious baked goods that you can easily recreate in your own kitchen with success. The only way this is possible is to standardize the way ingredients are measured - by weight. Volume measurements are extremely inaccurate and leave room for significant errors. Not all measuring cups are made equally, so your one cup of flour will be different from my one cup of flour. By providing precise measurements in grams (aside from minor ingredients, which are given in tsp/tbsp), I can ensure that you can make the recipe accurately and with less cleanup! All you need is this kitchen scale. 

    If this still isn't enough to convince you, I have provided volume measurements in the recipe card. If you are interested in understanding the conversions, this is the best conversion chart.

    But trust me, once you try baking in grams you'll never turn back!

    Happy baking! x
