Ingredients

FRUIT CRISP

  • 3 cups chopped rhubarb
  • 2 cups strawberries thickly sliced
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoon cornstarch

OAT TOPPING

  • 1 cup gluten free whole oats
  • cup EGFG gluten free flour blend* (or oat flour)
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoon white sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 6 tablespoon butter, room temperature

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Combine rhubarb and strawberries in a large bowl.
  • Sprinkle sugar and cornstarch over the fruit. Stir using a spatula until evenly combined.
  • Transfer to an ungreased 8-inch square glass baking pan. Set aside while you make the topping.

STREUSEL TOPPING

  • In a medium bowl combine oats, flour, sugars and cinnamon.
  • Using your hands or a pastry cutter, squish the butter into the dry ingredients until evenly mixed.
  • Spread the streusel evenly over the fruit without packing it down.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 45-55 minutes until the topping is golden and the fruit juices are bubbling around the edges. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

*EGFG flour blend: 300g sweet rice flour, 300g potato starch, 200g sorghum flour, 200g millet flour (makes ~8 cups)
Vary the fruit combinations with what's in season.
    • Any berry combination all spring and summer (my mom always includes rhubarb).
    • Peaches and blueberries, blackberries or raspberries in late summer when peaches are at their best.
    • Just apples or apples and blueberries in late summer and early fall.
    • Apples and/or pear with cranberries from October into the new year.
