Now that it’s rhubarb season…and the start of berry season, I thought a strawberry rhubarb baked oatmeal was in order. I took the baked oatmeal recipe from my Breakfast and Lunch Cookbook and gave it a few twists.
And this is what I got…
3 stalks rhubarb. plus about 3 cups diced strawberries (that I froze recently.)
Toss the strawberries and rhubarb together in the bottom of a 9×13 baking pan. Then pour the batter over the top and gently stir in the fruit.
Give it a good sprinkling of brown sugar. Be generous!

I’m obsessed with rhubarb, and this looks fantastic. I love using it in things other than dessert. My friend recently came up with this Rhubarb Applesauce recipe — it has no added sugar and is super good!
