- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar or honey
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch or arrowroot powder

- 1/3 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×9-inch or similar baking dish.
- In a large bowl, mix sliced apples, strawberries, lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon until evenly coated. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
