Fresh, seasonal strawberries and rhubarb make a natural sweet paleo cobbler recipe with a crumbly pecan topping.

Not to brag, but I might just have one of the best sisters on this side of the Mississippi. Every week, my sister and I get together to cook dinner with the fresh produce and meat we get from our local CSAs. Twice now, she’s shown up to sister dinner night with this AMAZING Paleo Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble in hand. Like, who else has a sister nice enough to make two paleo cobblers for you? #spoiled
Although I had never tried rhubarb desserts, we got some fresh from our grandma’s garden to make this crumble, and I was pleasantly surprised at how good it tastes with strawberries. As soon as I tried this crumble, I knew I had to get the recipe. It’s shockingly delicious. The fruit is sweet enough on its own to not need any added sugar, and the crumbly pecan topping is full of amazing cinnamon flavor. Not to mention it’s so stinkin’ easy to make!
I’m only a little ashamed to say that I ate this entire pan myself. I even ate just this crumble for dinner one night. It’s that good.

Can the strawberries be frozen?

Hi Andrea - Yes, you can use frozen strawberries. I would thaw them first and try to strain any excess liquid.

Hi! Love the recipe! The pecans I had were halves so I pulsed them a bit in the food processor, then added the remaining ingredients plus I added some shredded coconut and pulsed again. So delicious! Thanks for sharing!!
