Rhubarb Crumble Recipe

Ingredients
Filling:
2 lbs rhubarb, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 1/4 cups white sugar
1/4 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
Crumble Topping:
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup of butter (1 stick), cut into cubes

Method
1 Preheat oven to 375°F. In a medium sized bowl, mix together the rhubarb, white sugar, 1/4 cup of flour, the vanilla extract, and the ground cardamom. Spoon into a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
2 In a food processor, pulse together 1 cup of flour, the salt, and the brown sugar. Add the butter and pulse until the pieces of butter are pea-sized. (Alternatively, mix the dry ingredients together and cut the butter in with two knives or a pastry cutter.) Spread topping mixture over rhubarb mixture.
3 Place in oven and cook for 35-45 minutes, until the filling is bubbly and the topping is lightly browned. Let cool for at least a half an hour before serving.
Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Serves 8.

  1. Easy and delicious! I didn't have any caramom and it fits well in a 9x9 pan but there is a bit too much topping. I added some straweberries to the mix. Maybe just use 1 cupe of sugar next time because it was a bit too sweet.
