Apple Rhubarb Crisp

Low fat and low Cholesterol
FILING
2 cups fresh or frozen unsweetened sliced rhubarb, thawed if frozen and drained
2 medium cooking apples, cored, peeled, and sliced (about 2 cups)
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch

TOPPING
2/3 cup uncooked regular or quick-cooking rolled oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
3 1/2 tablespoons light tub margarine

In a large bowl, stir together the filling ingredients to mix well. Let stand for 1 hour. Spoon into an ungreased 8-inch square baking pan or 1-quart casserole dish.

In a medium bowl, stir together the topping ingredients except the margarine.

Using a pastry blender, cut the margarine into the topping until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the topping over the apple-rhubarb mixture.

Oven at 375 degrees. Bake, uncovered, for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is light brown. Let cool for about 20 minutes before serving.
