Old Fashined Strawberry Dessert

4 cups sliced fresh strawberries
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/4 cups quick oats
2/3 cups packed brown sugar
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/8 tsp salt
2/3 cups cold butter
2 tbls sugar
1/4 to 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Drain straweberries on paper towels; set aside. In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 1/2 cups for topping. Pat remaining crumb mixture into a greased 9 in. square baking pan.

In a bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon; stir in strawberries. Spoon over the prepared crust. Sprinkle with the reserved crumb mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

My addition: whip up some cream and put a dallop on top of the dessert with chocolate syrup drizzled over it. To die for!
