The first time I made this, it came out absolutely perfectly. The second time I made this it was a little thin the third time I made this it was a little thick. Apparently, I can’t make it the same way twice, however it still tastes wonderful. I cut down on the sugar a little bit to ease my conscience, but that’s the only change I make. I will keep making this and I’m so happy I found this recipe! Thank you, Deb C for posting it!!!
I really enjoyed these bars and I’m hoping that they freeze well since my husband doesn’t like rhubarb and there’s no one to share them with. My rhubarb was frozen in bags of 3 cups, so I used two bags and ran them under cold water, nuked for one minute at 50% power, and dried them the best I could. I can hardly wait to use fresh rhubarb this spring because I’m sure it will be even better. Also I’ll use parchment paper as a reviewer mentioned since I forgot this time.
I was only planning to change the amount of rhubarb and leave out the nuts, but I accidentally changed the flour too. I realized the batter was wrong as I added in the rhubarb, so I double checked my ingredients and realized the I accidentally used a 2/3 cup measure instead of a 1 cup! So I added 2/3 cup flour at the end and amazingly (to me anyway) they came out fine. I used 3 loosely packed cups of rhubarb based on other reviews and will again. Very good.
I almost made as written, but I had an oops. I used 3 large Honeycrisp and 2 small Pink Ladies and added the water and sugar—and then realized that I put in the same amount of sugar as water. While I was glad I caught that mistake, I hated wasting the sugar. Anyway I rinsed off the apples almost completely and figured I could add sugar to taste later. After the apples were cooked and mainly mashed, I tasted and added 2 tablespoons of sugar. My husband tasted and wanted a little more of both sugar and cinnamon. So I added 1 teaspoon of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon. Perfect considering I messed up early
