Rhubarb/Strawberry Honey Crisp



                      5 cups                                        Chopped Rhubarb
                     1/2 cup                                       Liquid Honey
                     1 tbsp                                         All Purpose Flour
                     1 tsp                                           Cinnamon
                     1/2 tsp                                        Ginger (optional) ... I didn't use it

                 
                   Topping

                   1-1/2 cups                                    Large flake rolled oats
                   1/3 cup                                         brown sugar
                   1/3 cup                                         liquid honey
                   1/4 cup                                         melted butter
                   1 tsp                                             cinnamon
                   1/2 tsp                                          salt


In mixing bowl stir together rhubarb, honey, flour, cinnamon and ginger (if using) until well combined.  Spoon into greased 8 cup baking dish.

Toppiing:  In same mixing bowl stir together oats, sugar, honey, butter, cinnamon and salt; sprinkle evenly over rhubarb

Bake in 375 degree F oven for 40 to 45 minutes or until fruit is tender and topping is browned.

** Easy, peasy recipe but such a fabulous summer dessert.... I served mine warm with french vanilla ice cream.  I also didn't use the total amount of honey called for... I used just under 1/2 cup because I added the strawberries which were sweet and because I like a tiny bit of tartness from the rhubarb.
