A simple and delicious one-bowl strawberry rhubarb crisp with a buttery oat streusel topping, perfect for summer and quick to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved (about 450g / 1 lb)
  • 3 cups fresh rhubarb, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces (about 375g / 13 oz)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar (150g)
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch (or arrowroot powder for gluten-free)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (75g)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (65g)
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed (100g)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled (85g / 6 tablespoons)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberries, chopped rhubarb, granulated sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Stir gently until evenly coated.
  3. Transfer the fruit mixture to a 9×9-inch (23×23 cm) baking dish and spread evenly.
  4. In the same mixing bowl, mix together the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Pour the melted butter over the dry streusel mix and combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle the oat streusel evenly over the fruit filling.
  7. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the filling is bubbly and the topping is golden brown. If the topping browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil after 30 minutes.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Let the crisp cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set and prevent juicy drips. If the streusel topping browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil after 30 minutes of baking. For gluten-free, substitute all-purpose flour with almond or oat flour and use gluten-free cornstarch. For dairy-free, replace butter with coconut oil.
