Original Recipe Yield 12 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1/3 cup cold butter
  • FILLING:
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 3 cups chopped fresh or frozen rhubarb
  • TOPPING:
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup cold butter

Directions

  1. In a bowl, combine flour and confectioners' sugar. Cut in butter until crumbly. Press into a greased 9-in. square baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees F for 15-18 minutes or until brown around the edges.
  2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the sugar, flour and salt. Add eggs; mix well. Fold in the rhubarb. Pour over crust. For topping, combine the flour, sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over filling. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45-50 minutes or until rhubarb is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack.

Footnotes

  • If using frozen rhubarb, measure rhubarb while still frozen, then thaw completely. Drain in a colander, but do not press liquid out.
