The only way this recipe makes sense is if you rename the three ingredients under Rhubarb Filling. Instead of saying that, it should read Crumb Topping. Those items are combined and spread over the top before baking. The actual filling is made from the ingredients at the bottom of the recipe. This sounds like a delicious coffeecake, and I plan to make it as soon as it is possible to get to the store again. When I saved my copy of the recipe, I made the Crumb Topping change in my copy so it made sense. I am including my revision below if it might help anybody.
