Ingredients

  • 2 cups Flour
  • 2 cups Oatmeal (uncooked, Quick Cook Is Fine)
  • 2 cups Brown Sugar, Packed
  • 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 3/4 cups Melted Butter (margarine May Be OK, But I Never Use It)
  • 8 cups Fresh Or Frozen Rhubarb, Cubed And Set Aside
  • 1-1/2 cup Sugar
  • 4 Tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 1-1/2 cup Water
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla

Method

  • Topping and crust:
  • Mix the flour, oatmeal, packed brown sugar, cinnamon and melted butter together. Place 1/2 of the mixture into a greased 9x13 pan, or make it easy and spray with PAM.
  • Place the cubed rhubarb over the crust and sit aside.
  • Syrup:
  • Combine the sugar, cornstarch, water and vanilla, cook until thick and clear. Pour over rhubarb. Top with the remaining crumbs. Bake at 350° for one hour 20 minutes. Some ovens may vary, check for doneness and remove when brown and bubbling. Great served warm with vanilla ice cream.
