Ingredients

Bars

  • cup old-fashioned oats
  • cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • ¾ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 5 Tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 Tbsp canola oil
  • ¼ cup chopped raw cashews (or other nuts)

Topping

  • 5 cups sliced strawberries
  • cup sugar
  • 2 Tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly coat a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Place the oats, whole wheat pastry flour, cinnamon and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the oats are finely ground. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture forms large crumbs.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the egg and canola oil. With the motor running, slowly pour the egg mixture into the food processor. Process until the mixture starts to stick together.
  • Transfer ¾ cup of the mixture to a bowl and stir in the nuts. Set aside for the topping.
  • Press the remaining mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form a crust.
  • In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla. Spread the strawberry mixture evenly over the crust.
  • Sprinkle the reserved nut mixture over top. Bake until the topping is starting to brown and the fruit is bubbling, 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Let cool on a rack, then transfer to the fridge for 30 minutes (this will help with cutting and serving the bars). Cut into 24 pieces.
