For a richer flavor, consider browning the butter before incorporating it into the crumble topping. If you don't have half-and-half, you can substitute with a mixture of half milk and half heavy cream. This dessert is best served warm, but it can also be enjoyed at room temperature or chilled. Store leftovers in the refrigerator. A touch of almond extract (about 1/4 teaspoon) added to the egg mixture complements the rhubarb beautifully.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups flour and brown sugar. Cut in the softened butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of this mixture for topping. Press the remaining crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. (15 minutes)
03
StepBake the crust in the preheated oven until lightly golden brown, approximately 15 minutes. (15 minutes)
04
StepWhile the crust is baking, prepare the filling. In a large bowl, beat the eggs until light and frothy. Whisk in 1/4 cup flour, granulated sugar, half-and-half, and salt until smooth and well combined. (10 minutes)
05
StepRemove the partially baked crust from the oven. Sprinkle the chopped rhubarb evenly over the crust. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the rhubarb. Sprinkle the reserved flour mixture evenly over the top. (5 minutes)
06
StepReturn the dish to the preheated oven and bake until the filling is set and the topping is golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean. (45 minutes)

Mar 4, 2024The crust was a little too crumbly for my liking. Next time, I might add a little more butter.
