A super easy, and quick strawberry rhubarb dessert recipe that is perfect with ice cream, custard, cream, or even on its own.

Equipment

  • 1 pie dish (or similar sized baking dish)

Ingredients

Fruit Filling:

  • 8 oz rhubarb
  • 8 oz strawberries (chopped)
  • 1 tsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • ⅔ cup sugar (add a little more if you like a sweeter flavor)
  • 2 tsp cornstarch

Topping:

  • 3 oz sugar
  • 6 Tbsp butter (if using unsalted, add a pinch of salt to the flour)
  • 1 egg (beaten)
  • 4 oz all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350º F (180º C).
  • Butter the inside of a pie-dish, or similar sized baking dish

Prepare the Strawberries and Rhubarb:

  • Wash and quarter the strawberries. Place in a bowl big enough for all the fruit.
  • Wash the rhubarb stalks and chop into 1"(2.5 cm) pieces. Add to the chopped strawberry bowl.
  • Stir the cornstarch into the sugar, then add it to the fruit along with the lemon juice, and toss gently.
  • Place the sugared fruit into the buttered pie dish.

Make the Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler Topping:

  • Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl so that they are evenly mixed. 
  • Cream the sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, then gently fold in the flour and baking powder until well combined, without over mixing.
  • Drop large spoonfuls of the dough onto the filling in the pie dish.
  • Bake for 35 to 45 minutes (depending on your oven) or until the topping is baked through, and golden brown. Remove from the oven. Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. 

Notes

This keeps nicely in the fridge. You can freeze, but it won't be as good as fresh.
