Description
Let the chorus of summer ring with this delightfully bright, sweet and ever so slightly tart Rhubarb Peach Crisp. This dessert features a crumb base and a sugar syrup filling to produce the most tender rhubarb and luscious peach combination.
Ingredients
1/2 cup (4 ounces) melted butter or margarine
3/4 cup (100 grams) brown sugar
3/4 cup (70 grams) rolled oats
1 cup (150 grams) all purpose flour (plus 1/2 cup if using frozen fruit)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups (235 grams) rhubarb chopped
2 cups (340 grams) peaches sliced
3/4 cup (140 grams) granulated sugar
2 tablespoons (15 grams) cornstarch
1 cup (236 ml) boiling water
1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar. Stir to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
- Press half of the crumble mixture into the base of your oven safe skillet or 9x9 glass baking dish.
- For frozen fruit only: slightly thaw your rhubarb and drain excess liquid from it. Completely thaw peaches and place them on a paper towel to absorb excess juices. Then toss together in a bowl with an additional 1/2 cup of flour.
- Combine granulated sugar and starch and place in a small pot. Pour boiling water over the sugar mixture and stir until thick, cooking over heat if needed. Do not over thicken. Remove from heat and add vanilla.
- Place fruit mixture over the crumble base and pour the sugar syrup evenly over the fruit.
- Top with remaining crumble mixture and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-40 minutes or until fruit is bubbling and the top is golden brown.
- Allow the crisp to rest for 15-20 minutes before serving. Top with ice cream if desired.
