Ingredients

For the filling:

  • 1 pound fresh or frozen rhubarb chopped
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries tops removed and sliced
  • Juice of one lemon
  • ½ cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot starch

For the Topping:

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  • Add all filling ingredients, other than the arrowroot starch, to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cover and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Whisk the arrowroot starch with ¼ cup water then stir into the strawberry rhubarb mixture. Bring to a boil to thicken, then remove from heat.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, coconut sugar, and sea salt.
  • Add the butter to the flour mixture and combine either using your hands or a pastry cutter. Once a crumbly dough has formed, add in the pecans.
  • Pour the strawberry rhubarb mixture into an 8x8 baking dish, then top with the flour mixture.
  • Bake for 30 minutes at 350 F until top is slightly browned.
  • Let cool, then serve as is, or with your ice cream or whipped topping of choice!

Notes

  • For dairy-free: substitute ghee or coconut oil for the butter
