Crumbly Topping
- 1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into small cubes
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup instant or quick cooking polenta
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon Kosher salt
Juicy Filling

- 2 large stalks rhubarb thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Instructions
Crumbly Topping
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the butter, flour, polenta, sugar, egg, baking powder and salt, to make the topping. Pulse until a crumbly dough forms. Refrigerate the dough until ready to use. This topping can be made a few days in advance and kept in an airtight container in refrigerator until ready to use.
Juicy Filling
- Grease a 10-by-14 inch baking dish with butter. In a large bowl, gently combine the strawberries and rhubarb with the sugar, flour, lemon juice and salt. Pour the filling into the prepared baking dish. Scatter the crumbly topping over the filling. Bake the crisp until it’s lightly browned and the filling is bubbling, about 30-40 minutes. Remove the crisp from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for about 30 minutes. Serve with fresh whipped cream or your favorite ice cream.
