Rhubarb Cobbler

With tangy, sweet rhubarb and an irresistible cinnamon sugar biscuit topping, this rhubarb cobbler just begs for a scoop of cold ice cream.

Rhubarb Cobbler

With the summer starting and the heat rising, I’ve found myself making more rhubarb recipes than ever.

After making a couple of batches of Rhubarb Sauce followed by a Rhubarb Crisp and these Rhubarb Oatmeal Bars, I found myself wondering, “Why haven’t I tried making a rhubarb cobbler yet?” And wow, was that a good question to ask.

Bursting with the flavors of tart rhubarb and rich cinnamon, this easy rhubarb cobbler is great on its own or topped with homemade ice cream.

And if your family can resist eating the whole dessert in one sitting (something ours doesn’t do easily), the cobbler keeps and reheats wonderfully.

Rhubarb Cobbler Recipe

You’ll need the following ingredients to make the filling:

• Rhubarb
• Fresh lemon juice
• White sugar
• Cornstarch
• Ground cardamom

You’ll need the following ingredients to make the topping:

• All-purpose flour
• Light brown sugar
• White sugar
• Baking powder
• Kosher salt
• Cinnamon
• Butter
• Water

Start by preheating your oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, combine the rhubarb, lemon juice, sugar, cornstarch, and cardamom.

Stir to coat, then pour into a baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes.

While the filling is in the oven, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl and whisk to combine.

Toss the grated butter into the flour mixture and stir in the boiling water, just until combined (there should still be little lumps of butter in the mixture).

Remove the rhubarb mixture from the oven and drop the topping over the warm filling in spoonfuls. (I like to use my smallest cookie scoop to do this.)

Sprinkle the cobbler topping with the cinnamon sugar topping. Bake until the crust is golden and a toothpick inserted into the crust comes out clean, about 20-24 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
