Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups, chopped rhubarb
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup, cold and cubed butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Spread the chopped rhubarb evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar with the rhubarb. Set aside to let the rhubarb macerate while preparing the other components.
In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, and brown sugar.
Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set the crumb mixture aside.
In another bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, egg yolks, and vanilla extract until smooth. This will serve as the custard base.
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the rhubarb in the baking dish.
Sprinkle the crumb mixture on top of the custard-covered rhubarb, spreading it evenly to create a nice crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the custard is set.
Allow the dessert to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
