"Can I have the recipe?" is the question I'm always asked whenever I serve this delicious dessert. Rhubarb is generally ready first thing in spring, and these bars are a great way to welcome the season.

I'm vegan, so I made this dessert with plant-based butter and milk. It turned out great!

I'm allergic to gluten, so I made this dessert with gluten-free oats. It turned out just as good as the regular version.

This dessert is a great way to get kids to eat their fruits and vegetables. The cherries and rhubarb are hidden inside the oat crumble topping, so they're not as noticeable.

I'm not a big fan of desserts, but I really enjoyed this one. It's not too sweet and the oat crumble topping adds a nice crunch.

This dessert is a great way to use up leftover cherries and rhubarb. I always have a bunch of both in my fridge during the summer, so this recipe is a lifesaver.

I love the way the oat crumble topping gets all crispy and golden brown in the oven. It's the perfect complement to the tart cherries and rhubarb.

This dessert is so easy to make, but it looks and tastes like it came from a bakery. I'm definitely going to be making this again for my next dinner party.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a little less sugar next time. It was a little too sweet for my taste.
