Description

Sweet Roasted Rhubarb is a simple and delicious dessert featuring tender rhubarb pieces caramelized with sugar, honey, vanilla, and optional spices. Roasting the rhubarb enhances its natural tartness and brings out a lovely sweetness, perfect for serving warm over yogurt or ice cream or enjoying on its own.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 4 cups rhubarb, chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional for extra sweetness)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice (optional, for added zest)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  2. Toss Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the chopped rhubarb with granulated sugar, honey if using, vanilla extract, cinnamon if using, and fresh orange juice. Toss thoroughly until the rhubarb pieces are evenly coated in the mixture.
  3. Spread on Baking Sheet: Arrange the coated rhubarb mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet to allow for even roasting.
  4. Roast Rhubarb: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes. Stir once halfway through cooking to ensure even caramelization and tenderness. The rhubarb should become soft and slightly caramelized.
  5. Cool Slightly: Remove the roasted rhubarb from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes to thicken slightly and cool to a warm temperature.
  6. Serve: Enjoy the roasted rhubarb warm or at room temperature. Serve over yogurt, ice cream, or simply by itself as a sweet, tangy dessert.

Notes

  • For a tangier flavor, omit the honey and increase orange juice.
  • Use fresh rhubarb for best texture; frozen rhubarb may be too watery.
  • Adjust sugar quantity to taste based on the tartness of your rhubarb.
  • Roasted rhubarb can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Try adding a sprinkle of chopped nuts or a drizzle of cream when serving for extra richness.
