To Make the Shortbread Crust:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Lightly mist a 9x9-inch baking pan with non-stick spray, and line it with parchment.
Place the flour, powdered sugar, and salt in a large bowl and stir to combine.
Cut in the cold butter until it's no larger than pea-sized.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, and par-bake for 20 minutes.
To Make the Strawberry Filling:
To Make the Crumb Topping:
Stir the melted butter, flour, sugar, oats, lemon zest, and salt together with a fork until crumbly.
Sprinkle the crumb topping all over the jam layer.
Bake until just barely beginning to turn golden on top (approximately 30 to 40 minutes).
Cool completely, then cut into squares and garnish with powdered sugar.
