Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp
The Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp is a baked dessert combining tart rhubarb and sweet strawberries with a crisp, buttery oat topping. When baked, the filling bubbles gently beneath a golden crust of oats, flour, and sugars, offering contrasting textures and balanced flavors. It’s commonly served with vanilla ice cream to complement its warm fruitiness.
Ingredients
For The Filling:
- 10 ounces rhubarb about 2 cups, sliced
- 10 ounces strawberries about 2 cups, sliced
- lemon juice of half
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
For The Crisp Topping:
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup old fashioned oats not quick cooking
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 tablespoons butter cut into cubes (1/2 stick, unsalted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F
- Combine all ingredients for the filling in a bowl, toss together until mixed. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine all ingredients for crisp topping. Mix together until incorporated and mixture resembles wet sand (I use my hands for this, but you can use a fork if you prefer).
- Pour the filling mixture into a baking dish (I used 2 six and a half inch cast iron skillets, but you can also use one 8x8 inch baking dish).
- Bake until top is golden and filling is bubbly. In the two smaller baking dishes this took 30 minutes. If you use a larger baking dish, it may take 45 minutes to an hour.
- When done, allow to sit for a few minutes before serving. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Oven temperatures and baking dish size affect crisping times; watch for a golden top and bubbling filling.
- Vanilla sugar can be used in the topping to add extra flavor if available.
