A Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble, perfect for the season, is packed with brilliant colors of strawberry and rhubarb. And topped with a crunchy, cinnamon, buttery crumble.
Summer isn’t summer without a great fruit crumble. Announcing the season to come.
And this Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble is beautiful and delicious. A brilliant taste of the season.
The Fruit:
I often use a version of this crumble recipe for berries like blueberries, blackberries, boysenberries, marionberries, and even apples and peaches later in the summer.
But this crumble recipe is special, and springy, and filled with the season’s finest. Tangy rhubarb stalks will be chopped into 1-inch pieces, about 1-1/2 cups total. Which in turn is tossed with one quart of halved strawberries.
The Topping
I love a great flour and oat and butter topping. And always, I love to add a hint of cinnamon. But if cinnamon isn’t your thing, add a lemon instead. Add the zest of one lemon to the topping and the juice to the strawberries and rhubarb.
