Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
  3. Cut in unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve half for the topping.
  4. Press the reserved crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the greased baking dish.
  5. Layer the chopped fresh rhubarb evenly over the crust.
  6. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine water, sugar, and Clear Gel. Stir continuously until it thickens.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and cherry filling. Pour over the rhubarb layer.
  8. Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over the filling evenly.
  9. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and filling is bubbling.
