Equipment

  • Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 8 stalks rhubarb (approx. 2 cup) sliced into small pieces
  • 1 teaspoon cooking spray or butter, for greasing
  • ¼ cup cinnamon sugar see note

Crumb Mixture

  • 1 cup sugar
  • ½ cup butter melted
  • 1 cup flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch pan with cooking spray or butter.
  • Spread chopped rhubarb evenly across the pan and sprinkle with half of the cinnamon sugar.
  • In a medium bowl, combine sugar, melted butter, ¾ cup flour, and salt. Mix with a fork until crumbly. Gradually add the remaining ¼ cup flour until the mixture forms small clumps.
  • Sprinkle crumb mixture evenly over rhubarb. Top with the remaining cinnamon sugar.
  • Bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crisp.
  • Cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with vanilla ice cream or cold the next day for breakfast.

Notes

  • Cinnamon Sugar: To make a larger batch, mix 1 cup sugar with ½ cup cinnamon, and use about ¼ cup for this recipe. For a small batch, mix ¼ cup sugar with 1 tbsp cinnamon.
  • Pan Size: This recipe fills an 8x8-inch pan. Double everything for a 9x13 pan (and a crowd).
  • Flavor Boost: Add ½ tsp vanilla extract or a pinch of nutmeg to the crumb mixture for extra warmth.
