Ingredients
- 1/3 cup flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 lemon
- 4 ounces of butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

- 1 quart od strawberries
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch

- Preheat oven to 375˚F.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, 6 tablespoons of the sugar, and lemon zest. Stir in the melted butter, mixing until clumps form. Cover and place in the refrigerator.
- In a 9-inch pie dish, combine the rhubarb, strawberries, and lemon juice. Sprinkle with cornstarch and toss to incorporate.
- Remove topping from refrigerator. If needed, break up the topping so that it forms crumbles again. Cover the fruit evenly with the crumble topping, creating a thick layer. Place pie dish on a parchment-, foil-, or Silpat-lined baking sheet, and place on middle rack of oven. Bake 40-50 minutes, until the crumble is beginning to turn golden and the fruit is bubbling. Allow to cool at least 20 minutes on a wire rack before serving.
