There’s something special about enjoying a warm and comforting fruit crisp on a lazy Sunday morning. This delightful Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp recipe combines the tartness of rhubarb with the sweetness of strawberries, topped with a crunchy oat crumble.
Ingredients:
- Fresh Strawberries
- Fresh Rhubarb
- Rolled Oats
- Brown Sugar
- Unsalted Butter
Step 1: Prepare the Fruit
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Wash and slice the strawberries and rhubarb into bite-sized pieces. Toss them together with a bit of brown sugar to enhance their natural sweetness and allow them to macerate while you prepare the topping.
Step 2: Make the Crisp Topping
In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, brown sugar, and melted butter. Use your fingers to mix everything together until the mixture becomes crumbly and well-coated. Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less brown sugar.
Step 3: Assemble the Crisp
Spread the prepared fruit mixture evenly in a baking dish, ensuring that it covers the bottom evenly. Then, sprinkle the oat topping over the fruit, making sure to cover it completely for that perfect crunchy layer.
Step 4: Bake to Perfection
Place the assembled crisp in the preheated oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes or until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden brown and crisp. Keep an eye on it towards the end to prevent the topping from burning.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Once the crisp is done baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Spoon generous portions into bowls and top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
Experience the warm, comforting flavors of this Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp as you savor each bite, making it the perfect addition to your Sunday brunch menu.
