Baking

Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp & Whipped Coconut Creme

I thought I had missed rhubarb season in our neck of the woods this year! I hadn’t planned to add strawberry to my rhubarb crisp, but was only able to find one very small bunch at a local fresh market.  Turns out, given the bad winter, it hadn’t quite started yet.  The farmer’s markets are now full of bright, tasty rhubarb.  I will be stocking up and freezing a bunch this weekend!

Since I really wanted to make a rhubarb crisp I decided to add some frozen strawberries I had on hand to stretch the recipe.  The crunchy topping is sweetened with maple syrup, and gluten free!  And to top it off, whipped coconut cream!

Who knew you would whip coconut crème?  I added a bit of maple syrup to add a touch of sweet.

The sliced almonds give it a subtle nutty flavor.

It is dairy free and gluten free!

I used a bit of sugar to stew the rhubarb and strawberries, but could easily have substituted a natural sweetener such as agave or maple syrup.

Soooo Good!

ENJOY!

  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

    Yum! Fruit crisps are summer’s best desserts! Strawberry Rhubarb is a wonderful combo and your whipped coconut creme (which I am so excited to try) takes the flavors up a notch!

      Mandi, if you get the chance I would definitely try it! I actually love it raw, dipped in sugar, but baking with it is my favorite way to enjoy it.
