Bumbleberry Crumble

If you’re looking at the title to this recipe and thinking “what the heck is a bumbleberry?” you’re probably not alone. This isn’t some sort of a secret new berry you’re just hearing about. Bumbleberry just refers to a mixed berry pie (or crumble, or crisp), often including rhubarb or sometimes apple. I first had bumbleberry pie at a local restaurant many years ago and ever since then it has held the top spot as my absolute favorite pie flavor. I’ve been wanting to make a Summer dessert using rhubarb, so this Bumbleberry Crumble was the natural choice.

In my eyes, this is the perfect Summer dessert. It combines sweet berries with tart rhubarb and doesn’t use a ton of sweeteners, so the natural flavors of the fruits really shine. It’s covered in a buttery crumb topping that perfectly offsets the tartness of the rhubarb. It’s simple and delicious with little prep time and it’s perfect to bring to a Summer picnic or barbecue or to serve your family at home.

I love rhubarb and my taste buds tell me this Bumbleberry Crumble is the ideal combination of sweet and tart, but if you’re not a fan of the tartness of rhubarb you can replace it with apple and still accurately refer to it as bumbleberry. Or “Bumble Crumble” as I’ve been calling it because it rhymes and makes me happy. Whatever floats your boat. Or bumbles your crumble.
