- For a crispy streusel topping, use cold butter and flour. You can also freeze the streusel topping before baking for an even crispier texture.
- If you don't have rhubarb, you can use other fruits in this recipe, such as strawberries, blueberries, or apples.
- To make sure the rhubarb is cooked through, simmer it on low heat until it is softened and the juices are running.
