Today's rhubarb recipe is a variation of my favorite fruit dessert - blueberry crunch. I'll call it:
Strawberry - Rhubarb Crunch
Melt 1/2 cup butter.
In a casserole dish greased with cooking spray, place 2 cups chopped rhubarb and 2 cups strawberries, fresh or frozen.
In a separate bowl mix 3/4 cup rolled oats, 3/4 cup flour, and 1 cup sugar. Add melted butter and stir well. Spoon over fruit, and bake at 350º F. for about 30 minutes until crunchy, and fruit bubbling. Great alone or with whipped cream or ice cream. A perfect dessert for a May evening.
Since I don't have rhubarb, I'll try this recipe with fresh strawberries, which we buy from Costco.
ReplyDeleteGigi, I've made it with just strawberries, just raspberries, just blueberries, now this one, and it is always the very best! Easy, easy and delicious.
ReplyDeleteNan, I love rhubarb and your crunch looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteHello Nan!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful banner! Thank you so much for the lovely recipe. I would love to give it a try with strawberries which are plentiful this time of year and there are some really beautiful and sweet berries this season. Thank you so much for sharing. Enjoy a lovely weekend.

Oh my goodness - this sounds incredibly delicious. This is going in my file! (and with any luck - in my oven - soon!)
ReplyDeleteOoohhh -- I'm coming to YOUR house for dessert. So what if it's a six-hour drive? LOL!

Strawberry-Rhubarb anything is a huge weakness of mine. Yum!!

That looks yummy! I'll be sure to pick up some more rhubarb, since the pie I made didn't last long!
ReplyDeleteMmmmmm... this sounds really fabulous. I think I'll try it with blueberries.
ReplyDeleteNan, I have just stumbled on your blog and I am so excited. At this time I am reading Storm in a Village for maybe the 5th time!! I will be running out to our local farm and getting some rhubarb in which to make the rhubarb crunch. Looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteThanks to each of you for your enthusiasm! There are lots of recipes on the sidebar with new ones added all the time. I love baking, and fruit desserts are my favorite of all. Thank you for coming by and leaving me such nice notes.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great recipe. Shall try it with rhubarb and mixed frozen fruit.
ReplyDeleteThis looks divine!!!!
ReplyDeleteSusie and Staci, it is great with any fruit, and so easy.
ReplyDeleteYou make me hungry!! The comments have said it all. Have a great day or evening - whenever you read this.
ReplyDeleteErnestine, do you plan to plant some rhubarb? It does grow down there, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteOur rhubarb is coming along - and it won't be too long before we have local strawberries. Our farmer friends are growing them under plastic this year so we should get them a little earlier. Then I'll give your recipe a try - it looks good!
ReplyDeleteIsland Sparrow, I love strawberries but have to travel a ways to get them. I'd love to have a close farm that grew them.
ReplyDeleteNow wouldn't it be nice if strawberries and rhubarb both ripened at the same time in VT? I'm making this today with my own rhubarb and CT strawberries.
ReplyDeleteSarah, I can't tell you how it pleases me that you took the time to find the recipe and make it! I wonder if they come at the same time anywhere or if rhubarb is always earlier everywhere???
