Crisp and fruity dessert with Spring strawberries, rhubarb and ice cream.
Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp
By Sue Lau | Palatable Pastime
For my sixth and final offering for #BrunchWeek, I decided to wrap things up and wind things down with dessert. This time of year my thoughts are always on simple and easy strawberry desserts (besides the usual shortcake which I love!)
A couple of our sponsors, Nielsen Massey and Dixie Crystals, were generous enough to send along some product for me to use in making desserts, so I did. And one of the things I love most about this is how simple it is, and that you really can get this made in little over half an hour. Served with a nice scoop of ice cream, it makes the perfect final touch to any special brunch.
I am glad you stopped by this week to see all the brunch recipes this group of bloggers (myself included) have been working on. I was astounded at how many recipes there were! And yet, even now, there are a few more recipes for the day for you to browse so you can finalize your plans for a Mother’s Day brunch or just a nice breakfast on a lazy Saturday.

Tis the season again. Great recipe with which to welcome Spring!
I’m looking forward to all the spring and summer produce!
I have tons and tons of rhubarb in my garden just screaming at me to make a spring rhubarb and strawberry crisp! Perfect!
It was so good! I made a pie earlier that week (not as successful so it won’t be making an appearance until I get the recipe to work without weeping. I love working with seasonal ingredients so much. Just as I start missing Spring foods like rhubarb and morels, the peaches start coming in! #peachpiesoon
