Ingredients

• 2 cups (diced) Rhubarb stalks
• 2 (medium, sliced) Nectarines
• 4 (halved and sliced) Apricots
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 0.5 cups (melted) Unsalted butter
• 3 cups Day-old bread crumbs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch by 9-inch baking dish.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the diced rhubarb, sliced nectarines, sliced apricots, granulated sugar, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Mix gently to coat the fruit evenly. Set aside.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the bread crumbs, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir until the crumbs are well coated and evenly combined.

Step 4

Spread half of the crumb mixture evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish to create a base layer.

Step 5

Add the fruit mixture on top of the crumb layer, spreading it out evenly across the dish.

Step 6

Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture evenly over the fruit to create a top layer.

Step 7

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling and the crumb layer is golden brown.

Step 8

Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool slightly for about 10 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.
