And now, strawberry rhubarb crumble!

Lots of cooking this weekend folks. In fact, right now I’m in the midst of an ill-fated attempt to make my own cheese (more on that later), but I did make a delicious strawberry rhubarb crumble. I was inspired by our awesome farmers market and signs of spring. You can get the recipe here: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Rhubarb-Strawberry-Crunch/Detail.aspx

So, you start with three cups of strawberries and three cups rhubarb. Chop those up.

Don’t those rhubarb just look beautiful?

So then you mix in 1 cup of sugar and 3 tablespoons of flour. And if you’re me, you add 1 tablespoon of orange liquor for luck.

When you mix it all up it should look like a yummy sticky mess. You can put straight into a 9x13 pan.

Then you mix up the crumb toppling. You need two sticks of butter (which I did not actually have, so big thanks to Aaron for saving the day on that one). Then mix in a cup and a half of flour, a cup of brown sugar and a cup of oats.

It may be a bit hard to mix up the clumps, so give it your all. I had Victoria help.

Then spread the crumble on top.

And then cook at 375 for about 40 minutes. And it will look something like this:

Enjoy!
