  • Preheat oven to 350F.
    Preheating oven.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine flour, sweetener, and melted butter (melted in the microwave). Using a fork, blend well until combined. It will still be crumbly.

  • Spread crust mixture onto a silicone baking mat or parchment paper and flatten to approximately 1/4 inch thickness. Bake for approximately 15-18 minutes or until browned. Let cool completely (about 15-20 minutes). For this particular recipe, it is better to over-bake than to under-bake so that the texture is more like a shortbread and not a soft cookie.

  • While waiting for the crumb topping to bake, wash and de-stem strawberries. Chop strawberries into small chunks and place into a bowl. Add sweetener and mix well. Set aside.

  • Once crust is cooled, break it into smaller pieces, place inside a ziplock bag and smash to crumbs. Note - if crumb is not completely cool, it will not crumble.

Finish off with crumbs and strawberries. Chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.
