An usual secret ingredient used in the berry mixture really makes this sweet and tangy summer dessert stand out!

Best Rhubarb Crumble

I was looking for new recipes using rhubarb and came across this Rhubarb Crumble at Amanda’s Cookin! In her blog post she shares that this recipe actually won a $5,000 prize!

It’s such a simple recipe to make, but it’s very different than most. It also uses fresh strawberries and blueberries. And, a secret ingredient – balsamic vinegar. Also, you can easily cut back on the sugar if you’d like to cut back on the sweetness.

If you love rhubarb as much as I do, then you’ll love Baked Sticky Rhubarb Pudding, Pudding Crisp, and Rhubarb Cake with Cinnamon Icing, too!

• 2 cups Rhubarb, Cut into 1″ Pieces

And the Crumble:
