Good Old Fashioned Rhubarb Crisp


I've been using this recipe for rhubarb crisp all my married life. It's from 'Nellie Lyle Pattinson's Canadian Cookbook'. My sisters gave it to me at my shower - oh so many years ago . . . and it just falls open to the page when I go to look for 'Fruit Crumble' - it is delish!

Rhubarb Crisp

5 cups rhubarb, cut into 1-inch pieces

Syrup

1 Tbsp lemon juice
1/4 - 1 cup sugar
1/4 cup water or fruit juice

Crumb
2/3 cup flour
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup rolled oats
1/3 cup melted butter

Combine fruit and syrup and place in a 6 x 8 baking dish. Combine dry ingredients adding the melted butter last. Mix with fork until crumbly and sprinkle over fruit. Bake 40 minutes at 350 degrees. Serve with ice cream - a must!

    In England we make crumble, not crisp, but it is similar (just flour, butter and sugar rubbed together) and I love rhubarb crumble. I might just have to try this crisp out!

    I love rhubarb, and the pictures are great. I'm just beginning to try photography, and have been having a wonderful time looking at other folks' photos.

    BTW, I have a page on my site that lists more than 250 hops, memes, and photo challenges… some for each day of the week. Check under the header for the link to that page. I’ve also just started a BlogFrog community that focuses on hops, carnivals, memes, and photo challenges. Go to http://theblogfrog.com/1504201 to visit & participate. Please let me know if I'm missing any photo challenges that you'd recommend.

    I hope you’ll visit me soon. I follow back!

    Barb I grew up with large areas full of drills of rhubarb. Every week during the summer we had either stewed rhubarb on custard, rhubard tart or my favourite of all rhubard crumble which I think is just like your crisp. Your photos are wonderful.

    My goodness this looks wonderful and I love that it's a rhubarb recipe without the addition of strawberries. I am *so* making this very soon.

    my rhubarb is ready, but I never thought of putting it in a vase--it looks lovely. I'm going to be making jam next week. I make a rhubarb/pineapple jam that my family loves. Your crisp looks very yummy. Kaye—the road goes ever ever on

    Love the shots of the rhubarb in a vase! I hope to add some to my garden next year, as we're still trying to find the perfect (permanent) place.
