Crumble Topping
½cupunsalted butter
½cupgranulated sugar
½cupflour
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375F and prep the fruit. Remove the green leafy top of the strawberries and cut in slices or in quarters, depending on how rustic you want your fruit. Remove the ends of the rhubarb and chop into ½-inch pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and flour. In a mixing bowl, add the prepared fruit, lemon juice, small pieces of butter, and flour-sugar mixture. Gently toss together until all the fruit is coated.
Prepare the crumble topping. In a food processor, pulse the flour, sugar, and butter together. Alternatively, you can use a pastry cutter or your fingers to break the butter into pea size pieces and mix with the flour and sugar.
Transfer the fruit from the mixing bowl to a 10” cast iron skillet or 8x8 square baking dish. Sprinkle with crumble over the top.
Bake at 375°F for 45 to 55 minutes until the sides are bubbly and the center is just a little jiggly.
Notes
You'll need about 1 pound of rhubarb to get 3 cups after chopping.
If the strawberries are super juicy and have a puddle of liquid in the bowl after chopping, you may need an extra tablespoon of flour when mixing the filling together before baking. If the filling is really running after mixing, add it then.
