Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup melted butter
2 cups chopped rhubarb
2 cups chopped apples
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
1 cup white sugar
1 cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Stir flour, oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Pour melted butter into oat mixture and stir until crumbly. Pat half the oat mixture into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Stir rhubarb and apples together in a bowl; pour on top of oat mixture in baking dish.
Stir cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water together in a bowl until cornstarch is dissolved and mixture is smooth.
Heat sugar, 1 cup water, and vanilla extract in a saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil, stirring constantly.

Drizzle sugar mixture over rhubarb and apples; sprinkle remaining oat mixture over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven until hot and bubbly, 35 minutes.
