What I have for you is a super simple rhubarb and oat dessert that is not too sweet, a little tart with infusing a citrus taste. Around this time of the year, rhubarb is quite popular and easily utilized in many dishes. Although it tastes sweet like a fruit, it’s  considered a vegetable with wonderful nutritional properties. This my first time using this beautiful rhubarb in a recipe. Rhubarb crumble is quite easy to prepare and create in your own kitchen with little effort. This recipe was a two thumbs up with my family. Hope you give rhubarb a try. It is simply delicious!

4  cups rhubarb, washed, sliced and cubed

1/2 cup unsalted butter

1/3 cup brown sugar
