Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
- In a large bowl, stir together the diced strawberries and sugar. Let sit for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, add lemon juice and cornstarch and stir to combine.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix oats, flour, sugar, cinnamon, butter, salt, and vanilla on low speed until the butter is evenly dispersed and the mixture resembles coarse meal.
- Using your hands or the bottom of a measuring cup or glass, firmly press ⅔ of the crust mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan. Spread the strawberry filling evenly over the top of the crust.
- Sprinkle the remaining crust mixture over the top of the strawberry filling, squeezing together some of the mixture into clumps to create a crumb-like topping.
- Bake bars for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool completely before cutting.
