Farmer’s Fresh Cherry Rhubarb Crisp
I love weekends in the summertime. My Saturdays usually start with an early morning run and then a trip to Salt Lake City’s Downtown farmer’s market. I like to arrive right at 8:00 to beat the crowds and heat. Last week, I purchased beautiful cherries from a local farmer. After eating handfuls and handfuls of fresh cherries, I made a cherry rhubarb crisp for dessert. I try to purchase most of our produce from the farmer’s market during the summertime. We have a garden, but it is small, so trips to the market are important for us. I always feel like I am on a scavenger hunt. I usually make one lap around the market to scope out the goods and then I go back to make my final decisions. I am always pleased with my bag of goodies by the end of the morning. Utah has some great local farms that produce top quality fruits and vegetables.
Rhubarb + Fresh Cherry Crisp = Divine
I was very happy when I found cherries so I could make this fresh cherry rhubarb crisp. We have four rhubarb plants and one is still going strong, so I decided to add rhubarb to the crisp. The rhubarb added a nice tartness to the sweet cherries. I made an oatmeal crisp topping to cover the cherries and rhubarb. The fresh cherry crisp baked up in no time and was divine right out of the oven with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. If you plan on making this cherry rhubarb crisp, I highly recommend this cherry pitter. It will make your job a lot easier. I know you will want to make this delicious crisp more than once, so the cherry pitter will come in handy:)
