My son loved this dessert!! It was fast, easy and yummy!! A dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream would make it extra special.

Coming from someone who doesn't like rhubarb, it is very good! My husband made this recipe. It's a lot better than rhubarb pie! The little bit of sweet in the topping cuts the tartness of the rhubarb. We all liked it. So, he's making it again tonight!

My husband told me this was the best rhubarb crisp he's ever had! I'm definitely keeping this one handy and will make it again when my rhubarb is ready - delicious!

Wonderful!!!! Made this for a pot luck that my husband's work was having. As soon as he got home, I had to fill his request for copies of the recipe.
