Notes
Optional: Depending upon your parchment paper and bakeware material, you may want to add a VERY light coating of coconut oil to the parchment paper.
There is no need to coat the strawberry bits in flour to prevent them from falling to the bottom in this recipe. For other recipes in which you experience fruit congregating on the bottom, please see the FAQ section of this post for prevention ideas.
