Strawberry Rhubarb Crunch


Spring is all about strawberries and rhubarb.  Saw some gorgeous rhubarb at the grocery store the other day and just had to get it to make this recipe.  Especially since my husband once again mowed over my rhubarb plants.  I'm beginning to think he does it on purpose.

Ingredients
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups sliced fresh strawberries
  • 3 cups diced rhubarb
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1 cup rolled oats

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. In a large bowl, mix white sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, strawberries, and rhubarb. Place the mixture in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  3. Mix 1 1/2 cups flour, brown sugar, butter, and oats until crumbly. You may want to use a pastry blender for this. Crumble on top of the rhubarb and strawberry mixture.
  4. Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until crisp and lightly browned.

At our little local grocery store...not sure if they carry it at the bigger one. If all else fails, go hunting around town for someone with a plant in their yard and come back at night...ha ha.
