Strawberry-Rhubarb Crisp

"The cool tang of plain yogurt is good with the fruit flavors of strawberry, and rhubarb in this crisp. A little flour is added to the sweetened fruit to compensate for its juiciness."

  1. Delicious sweet tart crisp. I made it with fresh cut rhubarb that went into the freezer as soon as it was washed and cut and summer strawberries that I had also frozen. It came out great. I don't own a glass pie plate so went with the lead of other reviewers and used the oven @ 350 but mine took closer to 45 mins to get a golden glow on top and get the juice's bubbling. A wonderful touch of summer in January.
     
  2. Although I'm more for heating up or melting/softening things in the microwave, I did follow your recipe right on down, & must say that baking in that contraption was easy as crisp (or 'pie' if you want to be accurate)! Anyway, your recipe for this crisp is a real keeper! Absolutely loved everything about it, the easy of prep, the combo of flavors, everything! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

  3. This is such a great recipe!!!! Loved it! :) I didnt see that it was meant to be made in the microwave, but when I saw that I thought why not try it and it worked out fabulously. The topping was soft where it touched the fruit and crispy enough on top for us. <br/>The fruit filling was sooo yummy, loved the tart rhubarb with the sweet strawberries. YUM! I used only 1 tbs of splenda in the filling and 1 tbs of splenda brown sugar blend in the topping, which was enough sweetness for us.<br/>I served the crisp with vanilla yogurt and everyone raved about it. THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this keeper with us, weekend cooker!<br/>Made and reviewed for WTTM April 2011.
     
  4. We really enjoyed this crisp. The filling had the perfect proportion of sweet and tart taste. I also liked the fact that the topping did not get mushy at all, as some other crisp recipes have turned out. I have never made a baked good in the microwave, so I played it safe and cooked it in the oven at 350 degrees for 25 minutes, as other reviewers did as well. We finished the whole crisp in one sitting, it was that good. Thanks for posting this wonderful recipe!
     
  5. This is a delicious recipe! The amount of sugar called for was just right to balance the tang of the rhubarb with the sweetness of strawberries. My filling had some residual liquid the next day but tasted great nonetheless!
