4-Ingredient Amish Rhubarb Crunch
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
| Diced fresh rhubarb | 6 cups |
| Granulated sugar | 1 cup |
| White cake mix (dry) | 1 box (15/25 ounces) |
| Unsalted butter, melted | 1/2 cup (1 stick) |
Step-By-Step Directions:
-
Preheat and prep: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
-
Layer the rhubarb: Spread the diced rhubarb in an even layer across the bottom of the prepared dish.
-
Sweeten: Sprinkle the granulated sugar uniformly over the rhubarb to help draw out its natural juices during baking.
-
Add the cake mix: Evenly scatter the dry white cake mix over the sugared rhubarb layer without stirring.
-
Drizzle butter: Drizzle the melted butter slowly over the dry cake mix, covering as much surface area as possible to create a golden crust.
-
Bake until bubbling: Bake on the center rack for 35 to 45 minutes, until the topping is golden brown and the fruit layer is bubbling around the edges.
-
Rest and serve: Allow the dish to cool for 15 to 20 minutes so the fruit juices thicken before scooping. Serve warm or at room temperature.
