Easy Rhubarb & Ginger Crumble {With An Almond Topping}

Here's a really easy recipe for rhubarb & ginger crumble with a delicious almond crumble topping. Rhubarb requires quite a bit of sugar as rhubarb has quite a sharp flavour. I also like to add the juice of an orange which gives natural sweetness as well as flavour
