Notes
1. If you have a standard oven that is not fan forced / convection (i.e. no fan inside the oven), then it will take around 40 minutes to bake. Go by the color of the top - it should be a deep golden brown.
2. If your jam is not soft and easy to spread, pop it in the microwave for 1 minute to soften.
3. The mixture will be a bit clumped together so use your fingers to crumble it onto the top.
4.OTHER FRUIT: This recipe works great with most fruits. For fruits like raspberries and blueberries that can be added whole, no need to toss in sugar or cornflour. For fruit that's juicier than strawberries when chopped, like peaches and apricots, use an extra 1 tsp of cornstarch. If they are very sweet, no need to use the sugar.
5. Optional extra: ½ cup of chopped nuts into the biscuit mixture.
6. This freezes well! I froze most of the batch in the photos then I defrosted and served at room temperature.
7.Fresh Strawberry Bars nutrition per serving, assuming 16 (sensible) servings. I usually cut into 9 generous squares!
