Ingredients:

- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 cup cake flour
- 3 tbsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. -
Prepare Baking Dish:
Grease a shallow 8×12 baking dish with butter, ensuring to coat the bottom and sides thoroughly. Place the greased dish on a baking sheet to catch any potential spills. -
Arrange Rhubarb:
Spread the chopped rhubarb evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. -
Sweeten Rhubarb:
Sprinkle the rhubarb with sugar, ensuring each piece is coated evenly. Adjust the amount of sugar based on your preference and the tartness of the rhubarb. -
Dot with Butter:
Dot the surface of the rhubarb with small cubes of unsalted butter, distributing them evenly across the dish. -
Prepare Dough Mixture:
In a mixing bowl, sift together the cake flour, sugar, and salt. Once sifted, gently stir in the heavy cream until a sticky dough forms. -
Spread Dough over Fruit:
Spread the dough mixture evenly over the sugared rhubarb, ensuring to cover the fruit completely. -
Bake:
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 45 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling and the top is golden brown and crispy. -
Serve:
Once baked to perfection, remove the Rhubarb Grunt from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a dollop of cream, a scoop of ice cream, or a drizzle of custard for an extra decadent touch.
Enjoy your Rhubarb Grunt! 🍽️🥧
