Blueberry Rhubarb Crisp


Recipe:

6 cups chopped rhubarb
2 cups blueberries
1 cup sugar (more or less to taste, depending on how tart your berries are.  I use organic cane sugar)
2 tbsp cornstarch
I like my rhubarb soft, so I placed it in a pot with about ½ cup of water, the sugar, cornstarch and blueberries.  When thickened, pour into 9X13 greased baking dish.


Topping
1 cup of rolled oats
1 cup of brown sugar (1 make my own by taking the sugar and mixing with a small amount of molasses)
1 cup of flour (I used whole wheat pastry flower)
½ cup butter, melted

Stir all together, until the largest pieces are about pea sized.  Sprinkle over the top of the fruit mix.  Bake 350 for approx 30-35 minutes until bubbly in the center and top is golden brow

  3. Linda I use empty plastic ice cream tubs with handles and lids, or just my stainless steel bowls from my kitchen. Great idea though!
