Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp

Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp is a delightfully sweet and tart dessert that takes just a few minutes to get into the oven.

If you’re a fan of rhubarb you need this recipe in your collection. Besides my favorite one-bowl cake, crisps are my absolute favorite dessert to make. I kind of think of them like a lazy pie but with better crust. Because given the choice I’d much rather have a crumbly, sugar, streusel topping instead of a pie crust. But that’s just me. What’s your favorite type of dessert to make?

How to Make Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp:

Start by finding some fresh rhubarb. It is plentiful in the spring here in the Midwest. Make sure your knife is sharp to chop the stalks. They are stringy like a celery stalk and so a sharp, heavy knife is best for chopping rhubarb. Beyond that, you mix the fruit in one bowl and the crisp topping in another. Combine and bake. It’s so quick to make and the payoff is delicious.

How to Store Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp:

I keep my crisp on the countertop, uncovered for a full day. If it’s not all gone, I will cover the leftovers and stick them in the refrigerator overnight. I personally like a small bowl of cold crisp to eat in the morning for breakfast with my coffee. The topping isn’t as well, crisp, after being in the refrigerator. But it still tastes really good!

Kitchen Tips:

  • I use this chef’s knife. It’s durable and inexpensive.
  • I bake my crisp in a dish similar to this one.
  • The cardamom is optional but highly recommended.

    I haven’t seen any rhubarb (yet) in our grocery stores, which is a shame because the berries are at their peak right now. I’m going to have to double my efforts, so I can try out your delectable crisp!

      Awesome to hear. I’m surprised I’ve seen so much of it in our local grocery – and that it looks so good – that’s not always the case from year to year. I hope you’re able to track some down!
