1. Easy Rhubarb Tart

With just a few basic ingredients, this Easy Rhubarb Tart recipe produces a truly tasty dessert. Make your own delicious shortcrust pastry from scratch or, for an even faster fix, use pre-made all-butter pastry.

Put the tart in the oven after adding a straightforward filling of rhubarb, sugar, and cornmeal. 

Rhubarb has a tart flavor that is great when paired with sugar and other seasonings, but it is too sharp to eat fresh. Yet, in this pie it is sweet and tender. 

Making this tart only requires a few simple steps and takes less than an hour. Anyone could make this tart.

2. Rhubarb Almond Frangipane Tart

A simple shortbread crust holds a filling that is rich, yet not overly sweet either. There is a hint of orange and almond. Throughout the pie, you will find thick slices of sour rhubarb that cuts through the sweetness.

Toasted almonds top this tart for an extra crunch and texture. 

The rich, sweet almond paste is complemented by the addition of a little orange zest, which also gives it a little extra punch.

This tart is spectacular and will wow your family and friends.

3. Ultimate Rhubarb And Custard Tart

Custard and rhubarb are a tried-and-true pairing that complement one another wonderfully. The rhubarb’s bitterness counteracts the custard’s sweetness. 

Together they create a soft and light tart with a flaky and buttery pastry. Every mouthful is a delight to eat. 

Also, this tart takes very little time to create and bake, which makes it even better.

4. Rhubarb Crumble Tart

This dessert is made of buttery oatmeal crumble topping and luscious shortbread that has been cooked with vanilla bean.

In this instance, the buttery shortbread and the delicate vanilla flavor combine to create an exquisite taste. By balancing out the sharpness of the rhubarb. 

Since the crumble is produced from the same dough as the bottom crust and is made simultaneously. Assembling this shortbread tart is incredibly simple.

5. Rhubarb And Orange Tart

The tart rhubarb and sweet orange filling are held in a crisp shortcrust pastry shell. You might not typically think of combining rhubarb and orange together.

In order to make the filling richer, cream is also added. Which also adds more sweetness to the filling. 

This tart is really light and only a few ingredients are required to make it.

6. French Rhubarb Tart

In the Lorraine region of France, which is close to Germany, rhubarb tart is highly well-liked. French rhubarb grows well in this climate and in this kind of soil.

This striking rhubarb tart is both simple and lovely. The addition of French rhubarb gives this tart its fresh and French flavor. 

Almond powder is used to create a straightforward pastry shell. The powder helps to produce a much more crumbly pastry, that is very short. 

The fresh rhubarb is then placed on a bed of almond cream. This tart is straightforward overall but brimming with nutty, sweet, and sour flavors.

7. Strawberry And Rhubarb Tart

Free-form tarts like this have an air of simplicity and ease about them. Although it has an open face, the tart’s crust should be generously brushed with butter and sugar.

This gives it a crisp texture that contrasts well with the filling’s delicate fruity flavor. 

The flavors of strawberries and rhubarb go well together. You might, however, swap the strawberries for another red berry, such as raspberries.

This tart’s colors are appealing and tempt you to try a slice as you walk past the finished tart.

This straightforward tart just requires a few ingredients. Depending on what you have in your pantry, there are a few different ways you can dress it up.

To give the pie filling a gentle warmth and heat, spices are added to the rhubarb.

However, the fact that this tart is healthy, vegan, and only takes an hour to create is what makes it so delicious.

9. Rhubarb And Rosewater Tart

In this recipe, natural rosewater essence is used. Although extremely faint, the flavor goes well with the rhubarb. For an added rosewater kick, glaze the tart with rose-petal jam if you can get it.

10. Ricotta And Rhubarb Tart

In this recipe, the biscuit topping’s crunch makes for a wonderfully familiar and cozy dessert. Additionally, you may turn this into individual tarts, for easier serving.
