Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a small bowl, mix together flour, sugar, and butter until fully incorporated. A food processor works too, but I personally prefer mixing by hand. Once mixed, press the mixture into a 9 X 9-inch baking pan - but don't worry, an 8 X 10-inch pan will work just fine too. Bake for 10 minutes until it's lightly browned and crispy.
- While the crust is baking, mix rhubarb, flour, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl. Once the crust is done, spoon the fruit mixture onto it. Bake for another 30 minutes until the fruit is lightly browned and set.
- The final step is the sweetest - serve warm or cold with whipping cream or vanilla ice cream. Yum!
Notes
Pro Tips
Properly measure your ingredients: Use measuring cups and spoons to measure the flour, sugar, butter, tart rhubarb, and other ingredients. Don’t guess how much you are adding as this can change the outcome. Allow the bars to cool completely: Let the bars cool completely in the baking dish before cutting them into squares. This will help them set and hold their shape better, ensuring neat and tidy bars. Instead of cutting bars straight in the pan, line the baking pan with parchment paper before adding the crust. This way, you can easily remove the entire dessert at once and cut it into perfect squares. How cool is that? Give it a try!Nutrition
