I haven’t tried too much baking before with strawberries like with this double layer strawberry crisp. I have made muffins and sauce, but everything else I do with them I tend to use them fresh.
Well, when I saw a recipe for making a crisp using strawberries I wanted to make it. I was so interested in what it would be like. The double layer of streusel on the top and bottom is what really makes this amazing.
