4 cups fresh rhubarb, 1-inch diced (4 to 5 stalks)
4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved, if large
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice

RHUBARB CRISP



Rhubarb Crisp image

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.

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces, plus more for greasing pan
2 1/2 to 3 pounds rhubarb, trimmed, tough strings removed, and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces (about 5 to 6 cups)
1/4 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon orange or lemon juice
1 teaspoon orange or lemon zest
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, or to taste
Pinch salt
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup pecans

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Grease an 8- or 9-inch square baking or gratin dish with a little butter. Toss rhubarb with white sugar, orange or lemon juice and zest, and spread in baking dish.
  • Put the 6 tablespoons butter in a food processor along with brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt, and pulse for about 20 or 30 seconds, until it looks like small peas and just begins to clump together. Add oats and pecans and pulse just a few times to combine.
  • Crumble the topping over rhubarb and bake until golden and beginning to brown, 45 to 50 minutes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the crisp topping is golden brown and crispy, use a combination of oats, flour, brown sugar, and butter. You may also add nuts or seeds for extra texture and flavor.
  • If your rhubarb is particularly tart, consider adding a bit more sugar to the filling. You can also balance the tartness with a pinch of salt.
  • For a sweeter crisp, use ripe, juicy elderberries. If using frozen elderberries, thaw them completely before using.
  • To prevent the crisp from becoming too watery, drain any excess liquid from the rhubarb and elderberries before adding them to the filling.
  • Bake the crisp until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This usually takes about 45 minutes.
  • Serve the crisp warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

This rhubarb elderberry crisp is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for summer. The combination of tart rhubarb and sweet elderberries is perfectly balanced, and the crisp topping is the perfect finishing touch. Whether you are serving it for a special occasion or a simple weeknight dessert, this crisp is sure to be a hit.
