Ingredients

Apple Rhubarb Filling

  • 1.5 lbs apples, peeled and sliced
  • 3/4 lb fresh rhubarb , thinly sliced (2 stalks)
  • 1 medium lemon, zest and juice
  • 15 grams all-purpose flour
  • 150 grams light brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground cardamom
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Brown Sugar Streusel

  • 113 grams salted butter, melted
  • 210 grams all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 100 grams light brown sugar, light or dark
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Vanilla ice cream for topping

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F/177C convection (325F/163C conventional).
  2. For the filling, peel and slice the apples and place them in a greased deep 10" pan or a casserole dish or skillet (mine is 13" skillet - there's room to increase the recipe in this size pan though)*.

  3. Add the sliced rhubarb, lemon, flour, sugar, salt, spices and vanilla and mix until they're combined. Set aside.
    3/4 lb fresh rhubarb thinly sliced (2 stalks), 1 medium lemon, zest and juice, 15 grams all-purpose flour, 150 grams light brown sugar, 1/4 tsp fine sea salt, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/4 tsp ground cardamom
  4. For the streusel, melt the butter in a separate bowl and then add in all the flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Mix everything with a fork until the streusel forms pea sized chunks.
    113 grams salted butter melted, 210 grams all-purpose flour spooned and leveled, 100 grams light brown sugar light or dark, 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  5. Spread evenly on top of the apple mixture and bake for about 45 minutes, until the streusel has browned.
  6. Remove from the oven, let it rest for at least 15-30 minutes and then serve with vanilla ice cream!**

Notes

*If you want to bake it in a 9" deep dish pie pan, this recipe is a bit much - I would scale the apples down to 75%. 
**if you serve when it's warm, it will still be quite juicy and runny but as it cools, it sets up nicely.
