RHUBARB CRISP
When you think of rhubarb you probably think of strawberry-rhubarb pie, a quintessential spring dessert, especially if it's made by someone who makes good pies. I usually manage around one pie crust annually, so I need alternatives. Thus, when the spring's first rhubarb shows up, I adjust the execution and produce a crisp. If rhubarb is young and fresh, you can trim it in seconds. If it has fibrous outer strings, peel them off as you would those of celery. Toss the rhubarb with orange or lemon juice and zest, and only a little sugar. (You can also substitute strawberries for some of the rhubarb if you want the classic combination.) Blend the ingredients for the crisp topping in a food processor, crumble the topping over the rhubarb mixture, and bake - it is nearly effortless and as good or better than a pie.
