This is an impressive-looking dessert that you can proudly serve to a crowd. The addition of grated apple to the rhubarb filling allows us to cut back on added sugar. It’s a great technique for sweetening other fruit fillings as well when you're making pies or other types of crumbles. You can also add some ground ginger and/or freshly grated nutmeg to the topping for a little spice. The savory topping comes together quickly thanks to the food processor or blender, and features all-purpose flour, old-fashioned oats, walnuts or pecans, brown sugar, and melted butter, which nicely complements the apples and rhubarb.
