Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 3 cups rhubarb stalks, chopped into 1-inch pieces (fresh or frozen)
  • ½ cup organic cane sugar or coconut sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch or arrowroot powder
  • 1½ cups rolled oats
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour or oat flour
  • ½ cup shredded unsweetened coconut
  • ⅓ cup coconut oil, melted (refined preferred)
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish with coconut oil or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, combine chopped rhubarb and halved strawberries. Add sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and cornstarch. Stir gently until fruit is evenly coated.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix rolled oats, flour, shredded coconut, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Pour in melted coconut oil and mix until crumbly. Adjust texture with water or more flour/oats if needed.
  4. Pour the fruit mixture evenly into the baking dish. Sprinkle the coconut oat crumble evenly over the top.
  5. Bake for 35-40 minutes until fruit is bubbling and topping is golden brown. Tent with foil if topping browns too quickly.
  6. Let the crisp cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to thicken.

Notes

Use frozen strawberries and rhubarb by thawing and draining excess liquid before use. For gluten-free, substitute all-purpose flour with oat or almond flour. To make topping extra crunchy, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end but watch closely to avoid burning. Vegan butter can substitute coconut oil if softened. Let crisp rest after baking for better flavor and texture.
