Rhubarb and Pear Crumble

Ingredients

Unsalted butter

1/2 cup, cold and cubed

Salt

1/4 teaspoon

Cinnamon

1 teaspoon

Brown sugar

1/2 cup

Rolled oats

1 cup

All-purpose flour

1 cup

Granulated sugar

1 cup

Pears

2 cups, sliced

Rhubarb

2 cups, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped rhubarb, sliced pears, and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar. Toss well to coat the fruit evenly with the sugar.
3. In another bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
4. Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This is your crumble topping.
5. Transfer the rhubarb and pear mixture to a baking dish. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling and the crumble topping is golden brown.
7. Remove the crumble from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
8. For an extra touch of indulgence, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy!
