Rhubarb-Crisp Recipes
Tasty Comfort Foods

Rhubarb-crisp recipes using various fruits and gingered-rhubarb can't go wrong. I love a crisp made with rhubarb. Any crisps actually. It's great comfort food.

But as good as they are, I sometimes get a bit bored with the sugar and cinnamon taste over and over again.

Certainly these ingredients play a big part but there must be other ways to spice it up.

I think I may have found a few. Take a look!
