Ingredients

  • 6 cups rhubarb, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 0.67 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch square or similar-sized baking dish.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, and cornstarch. Toss until the rhubarb is evenly coated and set aside.

Step 3

In a separate mixing bowl, prepare the crisp topping by combining the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.

Step 4

Using a pastry cutter or your hands, mix in the cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 5

Pour the rhubarb mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it into an even layer.

Step 6

Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the rhubarb filling.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delicious dessert.
