You lucky, lucky thing! I love, love, love rhubarb!

I got this recipe off here a while back, and it's a firm favourite now in our house. Everyone I've made it for has asked for the recipe.I don't put the banana in as I don't like it, and I use apple as well as rhubarb.

Caramel Crusted Rhubarb & Banana Pudding

¾ cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ cup rolled oats
¼ cup white sugar
100g melted butter
Stewed rhubarb (and or apple)
3 sliced bananas
¾ cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon custard powder or cornflour
¼ cup boiling water

Preheat oven to 180c.
Sift flour and baking powder into a bowl.
Add rolled oats and white sugar.
Mix in melted butter to make a crumble mixture.
Sprinkle over rhubarb and banana mixture.
In the discarded bowl, combine brown sugar and custard powder.
Spoon over crumble mix.
Carefully pour over the boiling water.
Do not stir.
Oven bake for 30 minutes

Thank goodness! I was beginning to think I was a little strange. I hate cooked banana! It takes over everything to the point you can't taste anything else. Yuk!

This is one of our favourites.

BAKED RHUBARB AND ORANGE SPONGE
1 bunch rhubarb,trimmed and chopped. 1/4 cup firmly packed brownn sugar; 2 tsp grated orange rind; 3 tbsp warmed honey; 60g butter; 1/4 cup caster sugar; 1 egg, lightly beaten; 3/4 cup self raising flour; 1/3 cup milk.
Place rhubarb in buttered ovenproof dish,sprinkle with the brown sugar and half the orange rind and pour over warmed honey. Cream butter with remaining orange rind and caster sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, then fold in sifted flour alternatively with the milk. Bake in a pre-heated modeerately hot oven (190C) for about 40 minutes or until golden. Serve hot with custard or cream. I serve it with a good vanilla bean ice-cream.

SPICE AND RHUBARB BUTTER BABY CAKES

225g soft unsalted butter
3/4 cup golden syrup
3 eggs
225g plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground cloves

COMPOTE:2 stalks rhubarb,sliced thinly ( I sliced on the diagonal)
55g caster sugar 1 tbsp water.
Combine rhubarb,sugar and water in small saucepan. Bring to boil on high heat. Reduce to low, cover and cook about 8 mins till rhubarb is soft.

Cream butter and golden syrup, add eggs, one at a time,mixing well after each addition. Sift over the flour,baking powder & spices. Stir well. Spoon into greased mini loaf pans ( the tray with eight) and then spoon 2 tsp of rhubarb compote along each centre. Bake at 180C for 12-15 minutes. I found that it was better to create a small "groove" along the length of each loaf and then put the compote lengthwise into the groove. The couple that I tried,without making a groove tended to have the rhubarb compte spread to the sides as they rose,whereas the grooved ones managed to keep the compte more concentrated in the centre. They were very moist,spicy and well worth making.

Hi noonesgirl would love the recipes for the rhubarb relish and rhubarb and raspberry jam if you could spare the time, thanks.

pamellie, Nov 15, 9:08pm
I'm sure this is a recipe I posted on here a long time ago but without bananas, I don't know where they would have come from and I must admit they don't appeal to me. An example of how recipes change I guess!

Fool...not you,Rhubarb Fool.
stew rhubarb in just a little water and sugar.Cool completely.
Whip cream, and make or buy vanilla custard. Or, use vanilla yoghurt. Combine.Add rhubarb.
I serve this topped with chopped crystallised ginger.
