Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish (9x9 inches or equivalent) with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
-
In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, water, and vanilla extract. Cook over medium heat until the rhubarb softens and the mixture slightly thickens, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
-
In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the cubed butter and blend the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Spread the cooked rhubarb mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the crumble topping over the rhubarb layer, covering it entirely.
-
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the rhubarb filling is bubbling around the edges.
-
Once done, remove the Rhubarbarians from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
-
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until heated through.
