Ingredients
Crumble / base
- 1 1/2 Cups Rolled Oats
- 1 3/4 Cups Plain Flour
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Lemon Zest
- 1/2 cup Melted Butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 TBSP Pureed Spinach Greens (1 1/2 cup fresh greens)*
Rhubarb Filling
- 2 Cups Chopped Rhubarb (2cm chunks)
- 1/4 Cup Sugar
- 2 TBSP Cornflour
- 3/4 Cup Water
- 3 TBSP Fresh Lemon Juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180degrees Celcius. Grease a 25cm square dish.
- Add all the filling ingredients into a saucepan on medium-low heat until the Rhubarb has softened. Add a little extra water if it is too thick. You want it to be thick but still be able to roll off the spoon.
- Allow to cool while you prep the base.
- Mix together all the dry ingredients for the crumble. Add in the melted butter and greens. (You can skip the greens and add an extra TSPB of butter).
- Press 3/4 of the mixture into the dish to form the base. Bake for 10 minutes and remove from the oven.
- Pour over the filling and sprinkle the remaining crumble on top.
- Bake for 30-40minutes until slightly golden.
- Grate extra lemon zest on top to serve.
Notes
*Blanch greens such as spinach or chard leaves, blitz to puree, and add into crumble for added nutrition.
