Ingredients

• 450 grams Fresh rhubarb
• 150 grams Granulated sugar
• 30 grams All-purpose flour
• 3 large Eggs
• 240 ml Heavy cream
• 120 ml Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish with butter or baking spray.

Step 2

Wash the rhubarb thoroughly and trim off any stringy outer layers. Cut the rhubarb stalks into 1-inch pieces.

Step 3

Spread the rhubarb evenly across the bottom of the greased dish.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and flour until well combined.

Step 5

Add the eggs to the sugar mixture and whisk until the mixture is smooth and light in color.

Step 6

Gradually add the heavy cream and whole milk to the egg mixture, whisking continuously. Then stir in the vanilla extract and salt until combined.

Step 7

Pour the custard mixture evenly over the prepared rhubarb in the baking dish.

Step 8

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the custard is set and slightly golden on top. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.

Step 9

Allow the rhubarb custard to cool for about 15 minutes before serving. The custard will continue to set as it cools.

Step 10

Serve warm or chilled, optionally with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
