Equipment

  • 3 Mixing Bowls
  • 1 Casserole Dish
  • 1 Hand Mixer or stand mixer

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ lb Rhubarb trimmed and diced
  • 1 lb Strawberries hulled and quartered
  • ¾, ½ C Granulated Sugar divided, plus sprinkle topping
  • 2 tbsp Corn Starch
  • tsp Vanilla Extract
  • ¾ C Flour whole wheat or all purpose
  • ¾ tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 pinch Salt kosher
  • ½ C Softened Butter
  • 1 Egg
  • ½ tsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven to 350 ℉. Combine the Rhubarb and Strawberries, ¾ C Granulated Sugar, 2 tbsp Corn Starch and 1 ½ tsp Vanilla Extract in a mixing bowl, and stir to combine. Add to a casserole or baking dish.
  • In a small mixing bowl combine ¾ C Flour, ¾ tsp Baking Powder and a Pinch of Salt, then set aside.
  • In a separate larger bowl, cream together ½ C Softened Butter (8 tbsp) and ½ C Granulated Sugar with a hand mixer or stand mixer on Medium for about 2 minutes.
  • Add 1 Egg and ½ tsp Vanilla Extract to creamed butter and mix to combine.
  • Gradually fold in the flour mixture into the creamed butter mixture. Stir until incorporated. The batter will be similar in consistency to cake batter.
  • Spoon the cobbler batter on the top and sprinkle with granulated sugar (about a tsp).
  • Bake at 350℉ for 55 Min. The top will be browned and the fruit will be very soft.
