Recipe Tips

*A Note on Coconut       Coconut is technically a fruit. While most allergists do not consider it a tree nut, if you are nut allergic, ask your doctor if coconut is safe for you.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375° F.
  2. Place rhubarb, orange juice and zest and sugar in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.
  3. Cook 10-15 minutes, adding strawberries halfway through the cooking time. Fold in ginger. Cook until rhubarb is tender, stirring often.
  4. Meanwhile, place all dry topping ingredients into a medium- sized bowl and combine well. Add coconut oil and mix thoroughly.
  5. When rhubarb mixture is ready, divide into 10-12 individual ramekins or one 9-inch greased pie pan. Spoon on the topping.
  6. Bake 10-15 minutes until topping is nicely browned. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
