Rhubarb sauce is probably the easiest rhubarb dessert recipe to make! Rhubarb + something sweet + top with coconut milk, cream and optionally crushed almonds or something crunchy = totally yummy goodness!

Ingredients

• Rhubarb – select hard crisp stems, remove leaves (very poisonous) and chop up in bite size pieces
• Water
• Some sweetener – honey, agave, maple syrup, cooked and pureed dates, or good old white sugar
• Splash of vanilla
• Coconut milk or cream (optional)
• Toasted nuts or seeds (optional)

Directions

• Put rhubarb and water in a pot and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally until the pieces are starting to come apart and are soft
• Add sweetener and stir until well blended
• Remove from heat and add vanilla
• Serve warm or cold with cream and any toppings you fancy
• Enjoy!

Super mom tip: raw rhubarb pieces and rhubarb sauce both freeze very well! Make a batch of sauce and freeze in small or large containers for easy re-heating later! 🙂
