Rhubarb Crisp

Dear Friends and Family,

Normally, I don't care for rhubarb. It's too tart in most recipes. But, it's true. If you add enough butter and sugar, it all tastes good.

1 pound fresh rhubarb, cut into 3/4-inch pieces, about 4 cups
1 cup sugar
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup old-fashion rolled oats
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted but not hot
  1. Preheat oven to 375°.
  2. Combine rhubarb, sugar, 1/4 cup flour, and cinnamon.
  3. Transfer to individual baking dishes. I like sixteen.
  4. Combine flour, brown sugar, oats, butter. Mix well.
  5. Sprinkle over rhubarb mixture.
  6. Bake until golden brown. About 20-30 minutes.
Serves 16. (4 Weight Watchers points)

You can garnish with ice cream. I liked it plain.

Key words: vegetarian, dessert


Cheers!
