Stir in the skillet to coat the strawberries and combine the mixture.
Prepare the Oatmeal Topping- in a small mixing bowl combine the 1 cup rolled oats, 1 cup all purpose flour, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pour over the 3/4 cup butter and mix until everything is coated and the crumb mixture resembles coarse sand.
Bake- Sprinkle the oatmeal crumb topping over the strawberry mixture and bake in an oven set to 375º F for 30-35 minutes. The crisp will be bubbly on the bottom and the oatmeal topping will be browned and crispy. Serve warm.
