Rhubarb crispy dessert recipe; Rhubarb starch mixture is added to the oatmeal and cinnamon crumb base and baked in the oven. When you prepare the ingredients in moderation and place them in layers, you get a sliceable, slightly sour-sweet dessert.
Ingredients
1. For the crumbs
2. 4 cups rhubarb (chopped)
Step-by-Step Method
Prepare the oven and the bowl
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a medium square baking dish; so the slices come out easily.
Make the crumb mixture
Mix flour, oatmeal, brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Add the margarine and rub it with your fingertips until a sand-like crumbly texture forms.
Press the base
Press about half of the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the baking pan with a spreader and spoon. Reserve the remaining crumbs for the top.
Bake the rhubarb mixture
Mix water and granulated sugar in the pot. Add corn starch and beat until there are no lumps. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens.
Add vanilla and rhubarb
When you remove it from the stove, add the vanilla. Add the chopped rhubarb to the mixture and mix gently with a spatula; Don't let the rhubarb pieces fall apart.
Form the layers
Pour the rhubarb filling onto the pressed base and flatten it. Sprinkle the crumbs you reserved over it, evenly.
Bake
Put the tray in the oven. Bake until top is lightly browned and filling is bubbly around edges, about 60 minutes; If the top browns early, cover it loosely with foil.
Rest and slice
After taking it out of the oven, let it sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. When it gets warm, it slices more evenly; If you want, serve it with plain ice cream or yoghurt.
