Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp

Preheat the oven to 350F and choose a baking dish. A 10″ cast iron skillet is preferred, but you could also use a 9″ or 8″ baking dish. Keep in mind it will need to bake for a few extra minutes if not using a cast iron skillet.

Note – make sure your butter is in the fridge at this point. Take it out and chop it right before adding to the crumble.

Combine all of the strawberry rhubarb filling ingredients in a large bowl and toss to coat. Add to your baking dish and spread it even. Set aside.

In another large bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.

Add in the very cold butter, cut into small cubes, and toss to coat. Then, use your fingers to squish and smoosh the butter into the dry ingredients. Work at it for a few minutes until you’re left with pea sized lumps of butter and the mixture holds together when you squeeze it in a fist.

Crumble on top of the fruit in an even layer and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.

Let the crisp cool for at least 30 minutes to allow the filling to thicken. Now dig in!
