Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp
Description
The recipe starts by mixing sliced strawberries and chopped rhubarb with honey, freshly squeezed orange juice, and zest. Cornstarch is sprinkled over the fruit and tossed in to help thicken the fruit juices during baking. The topping is a blend of quick oats, brown sugar, gluten-free or whole wheat flour, cinnamon, and melted butter, creating a crumbly mixture.
Once assembled in an oven-safe dish, the crisp bakes at 375°F until the topping turns golden brown and the fruit filling bubbles through. The final dish features a tender, juicy fruit layer with a thickened consistency under a crisp, flavorful oat topping that carries a warm cinnamon note. The interplay of the rhubarb's tartness and strawberry's sweetness is brightened by orange.
Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp is good served warm and can be complemented with frozen yogurt or whipped cream to add creaminess. The dish suits a relaxed dessert when fresh rhubarb and strawberries are in season.
