How to Make Rhubarb Crumble Ice Cream

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups flour, ½ cup cold butter, ½ cup granulated sugar, and ½ cup rolled oats. Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Stir in ¼ cup packed brown sugar. Press the crumble mixture into an 11x7 inch baking tin. Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  3. While the crumble bakes, combine the rhubarb, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and ½ cup granulated sugar in a large shallow baking dish.
  4. Place the rhubarb dish on a lower oven rack and the crumble on the rack above it. Bake the rhubarb for 15-20 minutes, or until tender. Remove and let cool.
  5. Once cooled, puree the cooked rhubarb using a food processor or blender until completely smooth.
  6. Transfer the rhubarb puree to the refrigerator to chill.
  7. Once the crumble has completely cooled, break it into small, pea-sized pieces.
  8. In a separate bowl, gently stir the 2 cups heavy cream into the chilled rhubarb puree.
  9. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
  10. Quickly transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container. Gently fold in the crumble pieces.
  11. Cover and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  12. **To make without an ice cream maker:** Combine the rhubarb puree and cream. Pour into a freezer-safe container and freeze for 3-4 hours. Whisk well, refreeze for another 2 hours, whisk again, and stir in the crumble before the final freezing.
