My Mom and I made this on the weekend. It was a delightful treat! We didn't have any vanilla extract so we substituted it with some maple syrup instead. Tasted fantastic! Definitely will recommend.

So my neighbor gave me a bunch of rhubarb this weekend, and I just had to do something with it. This turned out great! Was fairly simple to make (I don't bake much, so it has to be simple :) ) The crunch was sweet and tart at the same time, and I loved the crust! I will make another one tonight to give to my neighbor. Thank you! - I made the recipe exact, no tweaks. -
Very good Scarlett516 thanks for sharing. This was a hit. A keeper. -
Oh my, was this a treat! I've never cooked with rhubarb before. In fact, a few weeks ago I looked for it in my grocery store and couldn't find it. I found it this time and I'm so glad I made this for dessert. It turns out that I love the rhubarb and strawberry combination! That combined with the oats, brown sugar...oh yum! Thanks so much for a yummy recipe! ~Made for Zee Zesties on the ZWT6~

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I joined Recipezaar to learn new recipes that are home cooked. I grew up having ready-meals like Encor and Stouffers and needed recipes that don't simply require opening a box and plopping in the oven! I enjoy cooking when I have the time to try new dishes. I make every recipe as written if I'm reviewing it to give a true review. If I make alterations that aren't in the directions, I don't feel it's a true reflection of the recipe; it's another recipe to me.
