Rhubarb Crumble


In the April 2010 issue of the Canadian Living this recipe caught my eye. It did not disappoint at all, it was delicious.
Simple to prepare, maybe took 10 minutes to get ready. In the original recipe it called for bananas but I did not put the bananas in it. I did add a bit more sugar for the omitting of the bananas. If you would like to make with the bananas I have put the recipe link above.

Rhubarb Crumble

Ingredients:

5 cups sliced rhubarb
1/2 cup sugar
2 tbsp. unbleached flour

Topping:

3/4 cup large flake oatmeal
1/3 cup unbleached flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/3 cup cold butter, cubed
1/4 cup walnuts, optional
1/4 cup pine nuts, optional

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400º.
Grease 8 individual ramekins or 8 inch square baking dish.
In medium bowl toss rhubarb, sugar and flour; divide this mixture into the ramekins.
Cover with foil; bake for 25 minutes.

Turn oven down to 350º.

Topping:

Combine oats, flour, sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon.
Using fingers add butter and combine mixture until it becomes crumbly.
Mix in nuts of your choice.
After rhubarb mixture comes out of the oven; scatter over crumbly mixture and press down gently.
Bake uncovered for about 25 minutes at the 350º. Or until crumble is golden brown.
