Description
A classic dessert, Easy Rhubarb Crisp combines the tartness of fresh rhubarb with a warm, crumbly topping that’s simply irresistible. This comforting treat is perfect for showcasing rhubarb’s unique flavor, while offering a sweet contrast to its natural tang.
Ingredients
4 cups of rhubarb, chopped into 1-inch pieces
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
 - In a large bowl, combine the chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss until the rhubarb is evenly coated.
 - Transfer the rhubarb mixture into a greased 9×9-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
 - In a separate bowl, mix the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
 - Add the cold, cubed butter to the oat mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
 - Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the rhubarb filling in the baking dish.
 - Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the rhubarb is bubbling.
 - Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
 
Notes
- To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free all-purpose flour and gluten-free oats.
 - For a vegan version, substitute the butter with coconut oil or vegan butter.
 - For added crunch, you can mix in chopped walnuts or pecans with the oat topping.
 - Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days in the fridge.
 - To freeze, allow it to cool completely before wrapping tightly in plastic wrap and foil.
 - Reheat leftovers in the microwave or oven as needed.
