How to Make Cherry Rhubarb Cobbler

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, combine the rhubarb, cherries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Gently toss to coat.
Pour the fruit mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and butter until crumbly.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit filling.
Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional).
