Ingredients
Filling
- 5-6 cups chopped rhubarb, fresh or frozen (about 6 stalks)
- ¾ cup granulated sugar (150g)
- 3 Tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
Crisp Topping
- ½ cup salted butter, cubed
- ½ cup brown sugar (100g)
- 1 ½ cups old-fashioned oats
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour (106g)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Combine the rhubarb, sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice in an 8×8 or 9×9 baking dish. Toss to evenly distribute the sugar and cornstarch with the rhubarb.
- In a large bowl, mix the butter into the oats, flour, cinnamon, and salt using a fork or your hands until it resembles pea-sized crumbs. Add chopped nuts, if using.
- Sprinkle the crisp topping over the rhubarb filling, then bake for 35-40 minutes until the filling is bubbling and the crisp topping is lightly browned.
- Cool for at least 15 minutes before serving with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
If using frozen rhubarb, increase the cornstarch to 4 tablespoons.
