If you're looking for a delicious and easy dessert recipe, look no further than this first prize strawberry rhubarb crisp! This dish is perfect for any occasion, whether you're hosting guests or just want something tasty to enjoy at home. Follow these simple steps to make this mouthwatering crisp:
Ingredients
------------
Before you start, gather all the ingredients you will need. You'll need:
* 4 cups sliced strawberries
* 2 cups chopped rhubarb
* 1/2 cup brown sugar
* 2 tablespoons flour
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 1/2 cup rolled oats
* 1/2 cup brown sugar
* 1/2 cup butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
Instructions
-------------
### Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped rhubarb, sliced strawberries, brown sugar, flour, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir the mixture until everything is well combined.
### Transfer the mixture to an 8x8 inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and chilled butter pieces. Mix the ingredients together with your hands or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
### Sprinkle the crumb mixture over the top of the rhubarb and strawberry mixture.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Serve hot with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for the perfect dessert!
Tips and Variations
--------------------
### For an extra burst of flavor, add some fresh lemon juice to the fruit mixture before baking.
You can also add some chopped nuts, such as almonds or pecans, to the crumb mixture for added texture and nutrition.
### If you don't have rhubarb on hand, you can substitute it with any other tart fruit, such as apples or pears.
To make this crisp even healthier, you can use almond flour instead of all-purpose flour in the crumb mixture. Simply replace 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 cup of almond flour.
### If you're feeling adventurous, try adding some spices to the fruit mixture, such as nutmeg or ginger, for a unique twist on this classic dessert.
