The method

1

Making the stewed rhubarb...

Place rhubarb, sugar, water, and vanilla in a small saucepan.

Bring to the boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes until rhubarb is soft, but still has some chunkiness.

2

Making the crumble topping...

Add all the dry ingredients together in a bowl. Add the softened butter and rub the dry ingredients and butter together with your fingertips until they resemble chunky breadcrumbs or a crumble-like texture.

3

Assembling & cooking...

Preheat oven to 180C/350F.

Pour the rhubarb into a medium-sized ovenproof dish.

Top with the crumble mixture.

Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the crumble is browned on top.
