Ingredients
- 750 grams rhubarb
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 80 grams light brown sugar
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Step 2
Wash and cut the rhubarb into 1-inch pieces. Place the rhubarb in a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
Add granulated sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and cornstarch to the rhubarb. Toss everything together until the rhubarb is well coated. Set aside to allow the rhubarb to release some of its juices.
Step 4
In another bowl, combine all-purpose flour, light brown sugar, rolled oats, and ground cinnamon.
Step 5
Add the unsalted butter to the flour mixture, crumbling it together with your fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs and the oats are well incorporated. It should hold together in clumps when squeezed.
Step 6
Transfer the rhubarb mixture to a baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Step 7
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the rhubarb.
Step 8
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the rhubarb is bubbling.
Step 9
Remove the crumble from the oven, and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Step 10
Serve warm with a dollop of cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
