You have to try this Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp. Why? A whole bunch of reasons.
- For one, less than 10 ingredients (9 to be exact!)– that is all that is takes to make this sweet and delicious dessert.
- Even better – these ingredients are likely in your kitchen right now!!
- If the above 2 weren’t reasons enough, anybody that tries this Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp will thank you and think that it required a lot more time and effort than it actually does!!
Strawberries and rhubarb are the stars of this dessert. The beauty of this dessert is that the flavours are there whether you use fresh or frozen fruit. Is using frozen fruit, you don’t even have to thaw the fruit – super easy!
In the winter months reasonably priced fresh fruit is sometimes (aka always!) hard to come by. However, this does not stop us from enjoying fruit desserts because most can be easily made using frozen fruits.
Each spoonful of Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp is sweet and satisfying. The sweet plump fruit creates its own juices as this Crisp bakes and these juices bubble up through the crumble topping. You end up with a really pretty dessert!
As an added bonus, your house will smell cozy and homey as this bubbles away and bakes in the oven.
Now, don’t think that we have forgotten about the topping. The streusel-like crumble topping is to die for!
With that in mind, our little tip is to make extra topping because if you are like us, you will be eating it by the spoonful! We tend to sneak some while putting this dessert together and then sneak a little more after it is baked and is supposed to be cooling!
Please don’t judge!!!
We really hope that you enjoy Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp and that it will make you think of warmer weather too!

Delicious. Have made 2 in the last 2 weeks.
Yay! Glad to hear you are enjoying it!
love this recipe. Used frozen berries this time and had to cook about 15 min longer for topping to cook in the centre.
I’m so glad you loved it!
Your directions say to add sugar twice. Am I correct that the first is the granulated sugar in the bowl with the berries etc. and the second is the brown sugar on top?
Yes. Sorry that wasn’t more clear.
I love a mix of strawberry and rhubarb. It is that sweet and tart combination that is so enticing. Add a crunchy topping and I cannot wait to eat it.
I couldn’t have said it better myself!!
I got pounds of rhubarb from my neighbors and I was searching for recipes and I found yours. Easy and looks delicious!
It is easy and delicious! I wish my neighbors would bring me a few pounds of rhubarb – I’d trade for all the lemons still in my tree!
