Description

A delightful and tangy rhubarb tart with a flaky crust and sweet-tart filling, perfect for spring and summer desserts.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 34 tablespoons ice water
  • 3 cups rhubarb, chopped
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Add ice water one tablespoon at a time until the dough comes together. Form into a disk, wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  4. On a floured surface, roll out the dough to fit a 9-inch tart pan. Press into the pan and trim the edges.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix rhubarb, sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, and lemon juice.
  6. Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
  7. Brush the crust edges with beaten egg.
  8. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden and filling is bubbling.
  9. Allow to cool before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh rhubarb for best flavor and texture.
  • Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for added richness.
  • Can be made a day in advance and stored in the fridge.
