Easy Rhubarb Crisp
Growing up in Alaska, we had rhubarb growing out of our ears. This recipe is a great way to use it, and people will devour it.

4.5, used less white sugar in the syrup as sweet enough already, very nice!

I made this exactly as written, but instead used Splenda products for the sugars listed. Enjoyed it. The cooked sweetened mixture was much like making a lemon pie. I squeezed half of a lemon's juice over the rhubarb before putting the topping on. It is a reliable recipe.
Tasted stupendous, BUT i recommend making more crumble so it is more crunchy and not just goo. Here is how i cut it in halves :D 1/2C flour 3/8 oats 3/8 brown sugar OR 1/2 sugar if you didn't cut 1/4C melted butter 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
This was simple and so tasty! I had half the rhubarb needed, so I used half strawberries and added a squeeze on lemon for zing. I did 75% the brown and while sugar and it was plenty sweet. I also doubled the crumb topping /crust. The proportions with the doubled crumbles were so good, but pretty hearty. I may try to make the standard recipe for a lighter dessert.

Don’t repeat. Too heavy w streusel on bottom and top. Corn starch makes fruit too gummy. Try Emily Luchetti’s crisp from her cookbook, Stars Desserts...excellent, light and fruit flavors shine through.
My 10 yr old made this while using rhubarb for the first time. We were impressed. I thought it was a little too sweet, so I would consider cutting down on the sugar. She served it with whipped topping. The creamy topping was a great combination with the sweet and tart.
I adjusted the ingrediants down to 4 servings. I did not have enough rhubarb, so I did 2/3 strawberries, 1/3 rhubarb. I placed the sugar, fruit mixture into 4 custard cups, then topped with the crumble mixture. It turned out good. I plan to make again. I think I will cut back a bit on the white sugar next time.
Because we have an older type of rhubarb that is very sour this recipe works perfectly for it. I had some trouble with my first batch of cornstarch syrup not thickening--I must have done something wrong because I made a second batch and it thickened just fine. Added a pint of canned sour cherries because I prefer more filling but otherwise made it as described. Very good!
This was my first time cooking with rhubarb. I wasn't sure how many stalks to equal the correct amount so I ended up having to cut the recipe in half. It was one of the best desserts I've ever tasted! I will attempt the full recipe very soon. I bought 9 stalks of rhubarb this time instead of 4.
My 12 year-old kid made this all by their self. They used 3/4 cup of white sugar, instead of 1 cup. We all loved it!
I added a little salt to the topping and used 1/2 strawberries, since I didn't have enough rhubarb. Everyone loved it!
I used frozen fresh rhubarb, utilizing the juice strained off as the water. I also made 1/2 again as much “crust” as we like more available to sprinkle on top ??
Don't recommend this recipe. Mixture super sticky hard to work with. Cooked sugar mixture more than 5 minutes never thickened or got clear.
It's good, but I had to make some changes for our dietary restriction--gluten free. I substituted a gf granola for the oats. Also, I used orange juice instead of water (it helps sort of neutralize the rhubarb). I might make it with a bit less sugar next time. But it was really good!
Bottom stuck so next time I will not put in the bottom layer; otherwise it was easy to put together & good flavor. I doubled the rhubarb amount too since I find all recipes for crisp short on it & it makes it a little more tart.
I love all things rhubarb and this was pretty tasty. My main complaint is that there wasn't enough "crisp" on it. I even doubled the crisp when I made it and still felt like it needed more. I prepared it at home and cooked it at my mom's house while we were BBQing. Once it came out of the oven we topped it off with some vanilla bean ice cream. YUM-O
Turned out great, I used 3/4 cup of sugar,and 3/4 cup of water but added the juice of half a lemon to my water before mixing. Was perfectly balanced and I ate more than I should have. Great, easy recipe, will definitely make again.
So good even though I only had margarine, not butter. I put down a light pecan crumble on the bottom and yummmmm
One of the best rhubarb crisp recipes! Sweet (but not too sweet), and the crisp is actually crispy and not gooey! Love it, and it will become my 'go to' recipe again!!
Easy to make, I've made it twice & my sister used same recipe & like a lot too
It was just ok not enough rhubarb and two much sugar so it was way to sweet.
Could not get it out of the pan. The syrup that you coat over the crumbs just all stuck together. Will not make it again. So disappointed.
next time I will use half the sugar called for....this was way too sweet
I put all the crumble mixture on top. Loved it with half and half. Fresh cream would be divine
Made this with fresh rhubarb and frozen crab apples from last fall. It truly was an Alaskan dessert.
Wonderful!! The best Rhubarb Crisp that I have ever eaten..Excellent warm with ice cream!
Very easy to make! I am still waiting for it to come out of the oven!!
Delicious!!!! My hubby and grandz just loved this and so easy to make! I sprinkled some strawberry jello powder on the top to add some strawberry flavour. Thank you for sharing your recipe !!!!
