How to Make Rhubarb Crisp

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the rhubarb, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Gently toss to coat.
  3. Pour the rhubarb mixture into a greased 8x8 inch baking dish.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, oats, butter, and cinnamon. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the rhubarb filling.
  6. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the rhubarb is bubbly.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional).
