This cobbler is FANTASTIC! I usually use whatever berries and rhubarb I have in the house - and it always turns out great. I do think the recipe is a bit sweet, so I do reduce the amount of sugar used in with the cornstarch & vanilla.
Loved it!! I used a pound of rhubarb and it was perfect. Slightly tart, but crunchy bottom was very tasty. Would for sure repeat this one.
I loved this! It was delicious. Going forward, I will probably make a couple of changes - I will probably add more rhubarb and cut down a little on the brown sugar (but not much). I will also probably put 2/3 of the crumb mixture on top instead of just half - I love the crunch on top of the tart rhubarb! Absolutely delicious. Even my boyfriend, who doesn't really love fruit-based desserts (he prefers chocolate) went back for seconds!
This recipe was too sweet for my taste. I like to taste the tartness of the rhubarb. I would cut the sugar in the boiled mixture down to 2/3 cup. Otherwise it was good.

SORRY, I FORGOT TO MENTION TO YOU THAT YOU WOULD BE BAKING THIS DOUBLED RECIPE IN A 9x13 PAN. FOR GENERAL PURPOSES, WHEN DOUBLING A RECIPE YOU DO NOT DOUBLE ANY OF THE SALT YOU ARE ADDING! IT WILL MAKE THE RECIPE WAY TOO SALTY!
YOU CAN DOUBLE THIS RECIPE; JUST ADD ABOUT 5-7 MINUTES OF EXTRA BAKING TIME TO THE ORIGINAL TIME.WHY DOESN'T THIS RECIPE LIST THE POTASSIUM CONTENT? ALOT OF THE RECIPES ON THIS SITE DO AND I REALLY NEED THOSE FIGURES FOR MY DAILY LOW-POTASSIUM DIET. CAN ANYONE OFFER ME AN ANSWER?

Why are Rhubarb Crunch recipes always so small and in an 8" square pan? This wouldn't last 5 minutes in my family!!
