Rhubarb Crisp

1 pound rhubarb (chopped into 1 inch pieces)

2 sweet red apples (such as Rome or Gala, peeled, cored and sliced)

1/2 cup orange juice

1 tsp ground cinnamon

3 tbs pure cane sugar

1 cup plain bread crumbs

2 tbs brown sugar

1 tbs olive oil

Preheat broiler.
In a large saucepan, combine rhubarb, apples, orange juice, cinnamon and cane sugar.
Cover and cook over MEDIUM heat for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the rhubarb is just tender.
Taste the mixture and add more sugar if desired.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine bread crumbs, olive oil and brown sugar.
Mix well to combine.
Spread mixture on a foil-lined baking sheet and broil until lightly toasted, about 3 minutes.
Spoon half of the bread crumb mixture into the bottom of a shallow serving dish.
Cover with the warm fruit mixture and top with remaining crumb mixture.
Serve warm.
