- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup tapioca starch (or corn starch)
CRISP TOPPING
- 3/4 cup oats

- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup butter cold and cut into 1/2" cubes (+ 2 tablespoons melted butter)
- 3/4 teaspoon ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup raw pistachios (- roughly chopped)
ST. GERMAIN WHIPPED CREAM
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons St. Germain
Instructions
STRAWBERRY FILLING
- Hull & slice the strawberries into 1/2" rounds. Place in a large mixing bowl and mix in sugar, St. Germain, lemon zest & lemon juice. Stir together and allow to sit for a few minutes until the juices begin to release from the berries.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the tapioca starch and a few tablespoons of the juices released from the strawberries, until smooth. Pour back over strawberries and stir to combine. Set aside while you prep the crisp topping.
PISTACHIO CRISP TOPPING
- Preheat oven to 350Β° F.
- Toss the oats, flour, brown sugar, ginger and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Add the cold, cubed butter and squish with your hands to mash the butter into the dry ingredients until a crumbly texture forms. Then mix in 1/2 cup of the chopped pistachios.
- Brush a 10" cast iron skillet or baking dish with melted butter, then spoon in the strawberry mixture. Top with the pistachio crumble mix and sprinkle with remaining pistachios.
- Place skillet on a Silpat lined baking sheet and bake for 50-60 minutes until the top is golden brown and crispy. Allow to cool down significantly before serving.
ST. GERMAIN WHIPPED CREAM
- Chill the metal bowl and whisk of a stand mixer in the freezer for at least 10 minutes.
- Pour the heavy cream and St. Germain into the chilled bowl and whisk on a medium-high speed for about 1 minute. Add the sugar and beat for a couple more minutes until soft peaks form, careful not to overmix.
- Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Once the crisp has cooled and thickened up, scoop large spoonfuls onto a plate or bowl, top with St. Germain Whipped Cream and finely chopped pistachios.
