Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler

by Two Peas on May 25, 2011

Our rhubarb plants are taking over our yard. Well, not really, but I am having a hard time keeping up with them. They are getting big fast and I am trying to keep up. So I hope you like rhubarb because you will probably be seeing several rhubarb recipes in the near future:) One of my favorite rhubarb desserts is Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler. I prefer cobbler over pie because I love a good rustic dessert.

This Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler is easy to make and is topped with a thick, biscuit-like cobbler crust. The rhubarb is tart, but the strawberries and sugar add a nice blend of sweetness.

I like to make the cobbler in individual dishes, but you can make a large cobbler if you wish. The cobbler is best served warm out of the oven with a dollop of whipped cream, ice cream, or rhubarb sorbet.

If you are looking for ways to use up your rhubarb, try this Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler. I am already thinking about making it again. Good thing I have an abundance of rhubarb:)

Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler

Yield: Serves 6

Cook Time: 30-35 minutes

Ingredients:

4 1/2 cups chopped rhubarb
1 1/2 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon corn starch
1 teaspoon orange zest

For the cobbler crust:

2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup milk
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Turbinado sugar, for sprinkling

Directions:

1.  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, mix the rhubarb and the strawberries with the sugar, corn starch, and orange zest. Let sit for 30 minutes to bring out the juices.

2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of sugar, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Cut the butter in with a pastry blender or your hands. Combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add in the milk, egg, and vanilla, stir until just moistened. Don't overmix.

3. Pour strawberries and rhubarb into a 2-quart casserole dish or individual casserole dishes/ramekins.  Drop the cobbler batter on top of the fruit. Sprinkle turbinado sugar over the cobbler topping. Bake for 30-35 minutes until cobbler crust is golden brown and fruit filling is bubbling. If desired, serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

    Oh rhubarb is still new to me, I have tried it in a crisp and loved it. That’s so cool that you are growing it on your own. This looks delicious. I love fruit desserts!

    Your new space looks great guys!! Going to take a look around! :)

    Next year I am going to plant rhubarb! I love it – and your cobbler looks fantastic. I agree on the pie versus cobbler debate – cobbler is more rustic, more fun.

    Looks gorgeous and I must admit I’m incredibly jealous about the idea of rhubarb taking over your yard. I love urban living but I would LOVE a yard to be taken over by all kinds of delicious edibles.

    I wish I could get my hands on some nice rhubarb, but here in Macau (China) is almost unknown.

    Congratulations on the new look, it does look fresher and tastier!!

    LOVE the new look. Sort of modern- very cool! And this cobbler- YUM! As I always note, crisps/cobblers are my most favorite baked dessert. Fruit+topping+ whipped cream- you cannot go wrong.

    I love rhubarb and strawberry together. I think I grew up eating that combo. I miss rhubarb so much. It’s not really a desert plant. Although it wouldn’t hurt to try! Thank you for sharing!

    Looks delicious! If you need some more ideas, head over to my blog; I’m having a Rhubarb Week! :-) So far, I’ve made Rhubarb Upside-Down Cake, Lentils with Rhubarb and Caramelized Onions, and Roasted Rhubarb with wine and vanilla. I’m having a blast!

    Love the new look, Maria! And this cobbler looks fantastic. You are making very good use of your rhubarb crop.

    It doesn’t look like you peeled your rhubarb in the picture. Does that make it stringy? That could save a bit of time to skip a step recommended in several recipes

    • Two Peas replied: — May 26th, 2011 @ 1:40 pm

      I never peel rhubarb. I guess I am lazy:) I chop off the ends which tend to be the most stringy part. I’ve never had a problem.

    Lacey — May 25, 2011 @ 11:37 pm

    This looks so good! I’ve only ever had rhubarb once, and I’ve never cooked with it, but I might have to try now!
