RHUBARB CRUNCH

Ok everybody, here it is, the last yummy dessert before the Super Bowl.  This is another one of those recipes from my days going to the Stock Car Races.  It was always a crowd pleaser.  Rhubarb is plentiful in the stores right now, so give it a try this weekend.  You won't be sorry.  Also the farm stands here have Strawberries, so next week I will post my recipe for Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie.  A real winner!

RHUBARB CRUNCH

Mix until crumbly:
1 cup flour
3/4 cups oatmeal
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup melted butter 1 tsp cinnamon
COMBINE THE FOLLOWING:
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
2 tblsp cornstarch
1 tsp vanilla

Press half of the crumbly mixture into a greased 9" baking pan.  Add 4 cups of diced rhubarb.  Combine second mixture and cook until thick and clear.  Pour over rhubarb.  Top with remaining 1/2 of crumbly mixture.  Bake at 350 for 1 hour.

Now how easy is that?  And wait until you taste it.  You may want to make a double batch, or make two pans full.  It is that Yummy!

Have a great weekend.  May your Team win.

Ciao
