The perfect ending to a meal is a homemade warm fruit crisp topped with a dollop of whipped cream. Spring rhubarb and strawberries are the perfect combination of sweet and tart and work so well together for this comforting dessert.
I can’t pass up rhubarb whenever I see it in the farmer’s market and lately it’s been showing up more frequently in my local supermarket. If whipped cream is not your thing, I also LOVE eating this with a scoop of frozen yogurt, yum!!

This was a great dessert I made for my teenage son who is really into eating healthy and wanted a light dessert. I used coconut flour and old fashioned oats which I won’t do again because the topping had more of a powdery consistency and not crunchy. I also didn’t have rhubarb and just used 3 bananas instead. So it was a strawberry banana crisp. I am going to make this again for sure with the correct ingredients.Â
