Strawberry-Rhubarb Topping
Makes 8 servings
Time 20 min
Fresh rhubarb may be one of the spring season's most underrated treats. Here we team it with strawberries and crisp apples to create an irresistible and healthful topping for any number of desserts, from cheesecake to ice cream. Use 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water together to replace the agave nectar, if you like.
