Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 large egg
• 4 cups chopped rhubarb
• 1 tablespoon butter, diced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9-inch square baking dish.

Step 2

Make filling: Mix together sugar and cornstarch in a large saucepan. Stir in rhubarb and water. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1 minute. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Dot with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon.

Step 3

Make topping: Sift together flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Cut in butter with 2 knives or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Beat together milk and egg in a small bowl; add to flour mixture all at once and stir until just moistened.

Step 4

Drop spoonfuls of topping over rhubarb filling. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until topping is crisp and lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
