1/2cupold fashioned oatsgluten-free.
1/2cupwalnutschopped. (Any nut of choice)
1/2cupbrown sugar.
1tsp cinnamon.rounded
1/4cupbutteror non-dairy substitute.
4cupsmarionberries.Other varieties of berries are fine too
1 1/2- 2cupsrhubarbcut into pieces just under 1/2 inch.
4Tbspcorn starch.
1/2Tbspvanilla extract.
1Tbsplemon juice.
1cupagave or honey.I used 1/2 of each For vegans use agave or pure maple syrup...or both.
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375.Set aside a 7 1/2 x 11-inch or 9 x 13-inch rectangular baking pan. I used the smaller size - we like a thicker crisp.
In a small bowl add flour, oats, walnuts, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir together.
Cut in butter or non-dairy substitute. I use a pastry cutter and then finish with my fingers to incorporate the butter as much as possible.Set this mixture aside.
In a large mixing bowl add berries and rhubarb, gently mix.
Sprinkle cornstarch over fruit and add the rest of the ingredients over the cornstarch. Mix with a wooden spoon or spatula.
Microwave fruit mixture for 3 minutes. Stir. Microwave 2-3 minutes more. Stir.
Pour fruit mixture into baking pan. Sprinkle topping mixture evenly over fruit.
Bake for 40 minutes. Fruit should be bubbling all around the golden-colored topping.I always peek a little early just to make sure my topping isn't getting too brown.
Let sit briefly or let cool to room temperature.
Notes
And don't hesitate to add some ice-cream or a non-dairy frozen variety on top of your crisp.We like to whip up some Allergy-Friendly Vanilla Soft Serve, its just enough sweetness without any extra added fat or sugar
