Few desserts capture the magic of contrasting flavors like this streusel. The sweet strawberries balance the tangy and floral rhubarb, while the cranberries add a bright, tart twist and a pop of color. It takes a few minutes to put together, and you can season it with cinnamon and nutmeg to your liking.

Cranberry, Strawberry & Rhubarb Streusel

With a golden, crumbly streusel topping and a warm, bubbling fruit filling, this dish is as comforting as it is delicious. It’s the perfect way to showcase these bold, seasonal ingredients in one irresistible dessert. You can bake it in small ramekins, baking dish or even a skillet. You can serve it room temperature, a bit warm for the colder days, and your choice to have it a-la-mode or not 🤭

Cranberry, Strawberry & Rhubarb Streusel

Makes 6-8 servings

Ingredients, for the fruit filling:
3 cups chopped rhubarb
2 cups quartered strawberries
2 cups fresh cranberries
¾ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla
⅛ teaspoon salt

Ingredients, for the streusel:
½ cup butter
¾ cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup old fasioned oats
¾ cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
⅛ teaspoon salt

Directions:

Melt the butter and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
Add all of the filling ingredients to a bowl, and mix together. Transfer to a 8×9 inch skillet or baking dish and mix together.
To make the streusel, mix together the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Pour in the butter and mix together until combined but crumbly. Sprinkle the streusel over the fruit filling.
Place the skillet or baking dish on a parchament lined baking sheet in case the filling bubbles over. Bake uncovered for about 40-45 minutes, or until the edges are bubbling and the fruit is tender.
Let cool for one hour and serve with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream!
