Servings: 12
Ingredients
Filling
- 6 cups chopped rhubarb ~2 lbs.
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour or any kind
- 3 tablespoons quick-cooking oats
- 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
Topping
- 1.5 cups quick-cooking oats
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons orange zest
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- ½ cup slivered almonds
- 8 tablespoons butter softened
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF and wipe a 9x9-inch pan with butter. Set aside.
- If using frozen rhubarb, be sure to thaw it out. Then, add all of the ingredients for the filling to a large bowl and toss until the rhubarb is coated. Set aside.
- Prepare the crisp topping by adding the oats, flour, sugar, salt, orange zest, almond extract, and almonds to a large bowl.
- Add the butter and use a fork (or your hands) to cut it into the dry ingredients until a crumble forms. This will take 3-4 minutes.
- Transfer the rhubarb to the pan and top with half of the oatmeal topping. Gently work half of the oatmeal, topping down into the rhubarb with a spatula. Add the remaining oatmeal topping and cover.
- Bake for 30 minutes, uncover, and bake for an additional 20-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the edges begin to bubble.*
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
