Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, toss together rhubarb, apples, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Spread evenly in the prepared baking dish.
In another bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt. Stir in melted butter until mixture is crumbly.
Sprinkle oat mixture evenly over the fruit filling.
Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and fruit is bubbling.
Cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

Use tart apples like Granny Smith for the best flavor contrast with rhubarb.
Can be made ahead and reheated in the oven before serving.
Substitute some of the apples with strawberries for a variation.
