Ingredients:
- 3 cups (575g) peeled and sliced Granny Smith apples
- 2 cups (240g) sliced rhubarb
- 1 tbsp (15ml) lemon juice
- 1 tbsp (6g) lemon zest
- ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp (16g) cornstarch
- 1 tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp (1.5g) salt
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (90g) rolled oats
- ¾ cup (150g) packed light brown sugar
- ½ cup (113g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
- ½ tsp (2g) ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp (1.5g) salt
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples and rhubarb with lemon juice, zest, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt until evenly coated.
- Pour the fruit mixture into a 9x9 inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
- Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or fingertips to rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse sand with pea-sized clumps.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit without pressing it down.
- Bake for 40–45 minutes until the fruit juices are bubbling around the edges and the topping is a deep mahogany-colored gold.
