Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 750 grams rhubarb
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 100 grams light brown sugar
- 100 grams unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 50 grams rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a medium-sized baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches or similar).
Wash and trim the rhubarb, then chop it into 1-inch pieces. Place the rhubarb pieces into the greased baking dish.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cornstarch, then sprinkle this mixture evenly over the rhubarb to coat it.
In a separate large bowl, combine the flour, light brown sugar, rolled oats, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using your fingertips or a pastry cutter, rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Evenly distribute the crumbly mixture over the rhubarb in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the crumble topping is golden brown and the rhubarb is bubbling around the edges.
Allow the Crumbly Topped Rhubarb to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or custard.
