STRAWBERRY RHUBARB COBBLER

I have been meaning to share this recipe for Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler for a while. Typically, strawberry season and rhubarb season run hand-in-hand. In most parts, the prime season for this fruit and vegetable is between April and June. I was surprised to learn that rhubarb is actually a vegetable. I don't think I have ever treated it as a veggie. I've always eaten it in sweetened desserts.

WHAT DOES RHUBARB TASTE LIKE?

Rhubarb actually tastes pretty similar to green apples. It has a slightly tart taste. So, you can actually use it as a pretty acceptable substitute in those recipes where it calls for a green, tart apple. Most times, it works perfectly! This super simple Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler is topped with a slightly crunchy oatmeal crumble mixture. I added just a tad of cinnamon to the mixture to give it a bit more depth of flavor. It works really well with this recipe. If you want a super simple cobbler recipe, you gotta hop over and see my SKILLET CHERRY COBBLER! Also, my BANANA BREAD COBBLER is pretty spectacular too - ha!

WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
rhubarb
strawberries
sugar
cornstarch
all-purpose flour

for the topping:
all-purpose flour
rolled oats
sugar
cinnamon
water
cold salted butter

HOW TO MAKE STRAWBERRY RHUBARB COBBLER:

Blend together chopped rhubarb, strawberry, ½ cup sugar, cornstarch mixture and ¼ cup flour.

Pour into a buttered 10-12 inch oven-safe skillet, and heat over medium for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Set aside. Stir 1 cup flour, rolled oats, sugar, cinnamon and water together, then cut in butter with a pastry cutter or two forks until you have a crumbly, slightly moist texture.

Sprinkle topping to cover the strawberry rhubarb filling, then bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes.

Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
