Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups rhubarb chopped
  • 1 cup sugar adjust based on tartness
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup flour or gluten-free flour
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch optional, for thickening
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon optional for flavor

Equipment

  • 9-inch pie dish or baking dish
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spoon or spatula for folding

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the rhubarb: Toss the chopped rhubarb with 1/4 cup of sugar and let it sit for 15 minutes to release excess moisture. Drain the rhubarb.
  3. Mix wet ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and the remaining sugar.
  4. Add dry ingredients: Fold in the flour, cornstarch (if using), salt, and cinnamon until just combined.
  5. Combine: Gently fold the rhubarb into the batter.
  6. Pour the mixture into a greased 9-inch pie dish or baking dish.
  7. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool for 15-20 minutes before slicing. Optionally, serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
