  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Combine chopped strawberries, rhubarb, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Toss gently and let sit for 10 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
