Another Rhubarb Crunch

Submitted by HeatherFeather

"This version is slightly different from those already on Zaar, so I thought I would share. I found this tucked in my Great Aunt's recipe box. She clipped it from her local paper. According to the recipe clipping, the person who shared the recipe won a canned ham for her efforts. :) My personal notes & changes: I prefer far less topping and a bit more fruit than the original version calls for. This will be quite sweet and the top quite crunchy."

My family loved this dessert, I will definitely make it again. It was a little too sweet though so I might cut back on the sugar a little next time.

Mmmmm... it's rhubarb season again, and this is a great recipe. It's like any other crisp, but the topping is different, and I like it a lot better than most. It isn't a butter/sugar mix, but more of a crunchy crusty type top. I had a lot of rhubarb to use, so I made two batches of double the recipe and gave most to friends and neighbors.
