- Grease a baking or a springform pan. Line bottom with crumb dough.
- Preheat oven to 180C/355F and bake the bottom of the cake for about 20-25 minutes.

- Take baking pan out of the oven. Arrange strawberries on the bottom of the cake. Sprinkle dough crumbs over and cover with the egg white-mixture. Bake for another 10 minutes.
