Fruit Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the rhubarb, strawberries or apples, sugar, orange zest, cornstarch and orange liqueur and toss to thoroughly combine. Grease an 8 x 8 casserole or baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter and transfer the fruit mixture to the prepared casserole.
Topping
In a mixing bowl, combine the butter, flour, brown sugar, and oats and cut together until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the fruit and bake until the topping is golden brown and crispy and fruit is bubble in places, about 45 minutes.
Cool briefly and serve warm, with a dollop of whipped cream or French Vanilla ice cream, if desired.
