Thanks to the former owners of our house, we are enjoying a bountiful rhubarb harvest. Years later we're still appreciating the chives, hyacinths, rhubarb, lavender, & lilacs!
Rhubarb bars have a dense cake base & tangy rhubarb flavors. They are covered in a crisp topping, perfect for dessert!

What's your favorite way to enjoy rhubarb?
Loved the bars! Thanks for sharing the recipe! I use to enjoy rhubarb syrup on vanilla ice cream growing up! We had rhubarb in our yard too.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you like them as much as we do!

ReplyDeleteI'm hoping that I will have self restraint and not eat one for breakfast :-)
ReplyDeleteI've been craving rhubarb lately. Guess I'll have to try a GF version of these soon! Today, I'm planning to make some grapefruit french macarons. Cross your fingers.
