A crumble is the British name for a blend of berries or other fruit with a textured sugary topping, often with oats; the result is all but synonymous with a crisp. Our individual servings include rhubarb, strawberries, and raspberries nestled under an oatless blend of butter, brown sugar, flour, salt, and grated orange zest.

  • Divide rhubarb mixture among 6 small ceramic baking dishes (1 cup capacity and 5 1/2 inches in diameter). Transfer baking dishes to a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with topping, dividing evenly.

  • Bake until topping turns golden and juices are bubbling, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool on sheet on a wire rack 30 minutes. Serve with yogurt, if desired.

I just made this for the first time. It was a HUGE HIT! I didn't have any orange, so I omitted the juice and zest. I picked the fresh rhubarb from my garden, and used equal parts strawberries and rhubarb (about 3 cups each) and baked in a single 2 & 1/2 qt baking dish and served with french vanilla ice cream. It was so delicious, I didn't even need the ice cream. I didn't know rhubarb could taste so good.

I've been making this for years. It needs about 4 cups of rhubarb. The orange zest makes the recipe perfect - don't skip it. My favorite combination of fruits is rhubarb, strawberry, and blueberries. This is a winner of a recipe!

This is a favorite dessert. I served it a number of times and each time I get compliments. A friend of my mom's said it was the best dessert ever served at PEO. At book club, a friend said it was the best thing she has ever put in her mouth. I think the recipe should read 1 1/2 cups of rhubarb, not pounds. Also, I cut the sugar in half - I like it a little sour with the sweet crumble on the top. Perfect with vanilla yogurt or ice cream.
