RHUBARB CRUNCH

"RHUBARB was one of the first crops Grandma gathered from her garden in spring. She told us kids her rhubarb sauce was a good tonic for whatever ailed us, but we much preferred the delicious dessert she served after Easter dinner. This Rhubarb Crunch was so delicious with fresh cream skimmed from the top of some milk."

Tips:

  • To ensure the rhubarb crunch is perfectly cooked, insert a toothpick or skewer into the center of the dish. If it comes out clean, the crunch is done baking.
  • For a crispier topping, use cold butter when making the oat mixture. The cold butter will create small pockets of steam in the oven, resulting in a flakier crust.
  • If you don't have vanilla extract, you can substitute it with almond extract or lemon zest.
  • To make a gluten-free version of this recipe, use gluten-free oats and flour.
  • You can also add other fruits to this recipe, such as apples, strawberries, or blueberries.

Conclusion:

Mom's Rhubarb Crunch is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tart flavor, this classic dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
