- Rhubarb crisp is easy to make.
- It’s the perfect balance between sweet and tart.
- Prep it days in advance and bake before serving.
How to Prepare Rhubarb for Crisp
- Pull the rhubarb from the plant (rather than cutting). Remove the leaves and discard them. Rinse any dirt or debris from the stalk.
- You do not have to peel rhubarb; however, if the stalk is quite thick, peeling the tougher exterior is a good idea.
- The fresh rhubarb can be chopped and refrigerated or frozen for future recipes.

How to Make Rhubarb Crisp
- Prepare the rhubarb and toss with flour, sugar, and cinnamon.
- Prepare the crisp topping.
- Sprinkle the topping over fruit layer and bake until golden brown.
This recipe serves 4 but can easily be doubled for a 9×13 pan.
Holly’s Tips
- Some stalks of rhubarb will produce a lot of juice; be sure to let it rest to thicken.
- If using frozen rhubarb, increase the flour to 4 tablespoons in the fruit mix and increase the baking time by 10 to 15 minutes
- Other fruits can be added to change the flavor, apples, raspberries, and strawberries are favorites.
- Prepare large batches of the oatmeal topping and store in the freezer. To make crisp, simply sprinkle over fruit and bake.

Storing and Freezing Rhubarb Crisp
As with other desserts like pie, crispy can sit at room temperature overnight. If you are storing it for several days, refrigerate leftovers.
To Freeze Rhubarb: I love to make rhubarb crisp and you can freeze rhubarb crisp to enjoy in the off season.
