Rhubarb and Straw­berry Crum­ble
(serves one lit­tle girl for four break­fasts, ish)

2 pints straw­ber­ries, hulled
2 stalks rhubarb, peeled lightly and chopped rather small
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 dark brown sugar
1 tsp each: cin­na­mon, ground cloves, nut­meg, all­spice
1/2 cup cold but­ter, cut in large cubes, plus a lit­tle extra for dot­ting
juice of 1 lemon

Nonstick-spray an oven proof con­tainer, and lay in the straw­ber­ries, left whole. Top with the rhubarb. Then in your Cuisi­nart or Mag­imix, whizz together the flour, sug­ars and spices with the but­ter, until it is com­pletely mixed and starts to lose its pow­dery tex­ture and begins to look like it might stick as a dough. Don’t let it become a dough, but stop it when it starts to stick. Sprin­kle the lemon juice over the fruit and scat­ter the flour mix­ture on top. Dot the top of the crum­ble with some bits of but­ter and bake at 350 degrees for 40 min­utes or until the fruit bub­bles and top browns a bit.
