Tart rhubarb and apples, sweetened and spiced and topped with oatmeal crunch, make an easy dessert.

Yield: 6 to 8 servings

  • 1 cup flour
  • 3/4 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon allspice
  • 1/2 cup melted butter or margarine
  • 2 cups diced rhubarb
  • 2 cups sliced apples
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix together flour, oats, brown sugar, spices, and melted butter. Press half of the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch square baking pan. Arrange the rhubarb and apples evenly on top. Cook the white sugar, water, cornstarch, and vanilla until thick; pour over the rhubarb and apples. Sprinkle the remaining oatmeal mixture on top. Bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
