1½ C quick oats
¾ C brown sugar
½ tsp baking soda

1.In a large bowl, gently stir together strawberries, peaches, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Set aside.
2.Preheat oven to 350. Lightly spray a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
3.Whisk together flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in butter using a pastry blender or two forks until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

4.Reserve 1½ C of streusel and press remaining streusel into the bottom of prepared baking pan.
