Ingredients

How to make it

  • Cover the bottom of an 8 or 9 inch square pan with fruit. (I prefer an 8 inch or 9 inch square glass baking dish. You could also use a deep dish glass pie plate.)
  • Mix 3/4 cup sugar, butter, baking powder, salt, extracts, milk and flour together (add a little more milk if it is too thick to pour); pour over fruit. Mix remaining sugar and cornstarch; sprinkle over mixture in pan. Pour boiling water over the top.
  • ( I know this sounds strange, but it works to create a pudding around the rhubarb in the bottom of the pan.)
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes,
  • The sugar topping creates a glaze on the top of the cake, something like a creme brulee, as well as creating the pudding at the bottom. You can serve warm in a bowl with ice cream, or let it cool a bit, slice and invert on your plate to show off the pudding.
  • ****You may also substitute a gluten free flour. If you use a gluten free flour then bake an extra 10 minutes.

    I never cared for rhubarb but hadn't tried it in years. I decided to make this recipe and see what I thought. It was very good! The thin, sweet glaze on top is so good. It was also so easy to make. Thank you Tuilelaith for finding and sharing this recipe and thank you to DIZ for sharing it. I guess I like rhubarb now!

    This lived up to my every expectation and then some! Moist, gooey, and sweet! My favorite part is the thin, crispy glaze that naturally forms on the top. And to think, it's so easy to make. I barely dirtied a dish! Thank you, Tuilelaith! I'm so glad you found this recipe and shared it.
