Ingredients

Scale

Fruit Filling

  • 3 cups rhubarb, chopped (½-inch pieces)

  • 3 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar

  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Crisp Topping

  • 1 cup rolled oats

  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup cold butter, cubed

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon salt


Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Butter a 9×13-inch baking dish.

  • In a large bowl, combine rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss well and spread evenly in the baking dish.

  • In another bowl, mix oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt.

  • Add cold butter and rub with fingertips until coarse crumbs form.

  • Sprinkle topping evenly over the fruit.

  • Bake for 40–45 minutes, until golden on top and bubbling around the edges.

  • Let cool for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a thicker filling, increase cornstarch to 4 tablespoons.

  • Frozen fruit works, but thaw and drain well first.

  • Add chopped nuts or orange zest to the topping for extra flavor.
