Strawberry Rhubarb Almond Crumble

I’ve been very focused on all things green at the farmers market for the past month.

Whenever I empty the contents of my bag onto the kitchen counter, there is a pile of leaves and stalks from ramps to asparagus to scallions.

The growing season is very short in Chicago, so we have yet to see a lot of color other than rhubarb.

I finally bought a pound of those hot pink stalks, and I baked a strawberry & rhubarb almond crumble.

I had a gluten-free guest, so I reworked my usual topping recipe eliminating flour and using ground almonds instead.

Served warm with vanilla ice cream, everyone loved this nutty, sweet and tart dessert.

  1. I will be making this for a family member who is crazy about rhubarb. Will have to leave the almonds out, though.
