45 Delectable Rhubarb Recipes

We love creating rhubarb recipes in our home as we have a big rhubarb patch at the side of the house. Enough to harvest about 40 cups each year!! So I like to try lots of recipes. We have many of our recipes to show you, plus a lot more in this roundup of 45 Delectable Rhubarb Recipes. 

You may ask how to use rhubarb in recipes if you have never cooked with this vegetable! Vegetable? Wait I bet you thought is was fruit as it is almost always made sweet or paired with sweet fruit like strawberries. 

No, rhubarb is a vegetable, much like celery. If you get a nice varietal that is ruby red all of your recipes will have that lovely ruby red hue to them. Rhubarb is very easy to work with in many, many recipes.

It freezes well so it can be enjoyed year round and you can use frozen rhubarb directly in a lot of recipes too!!

Let’s explore all these wonderful recipes!! I have them divided down into loaves and muffins, crisps, cobblers and bars, cake, pies and tarts, no bake treats and condiments, frozen treats and drinks. 

Rhubarb Loaves and Muffins

Adding a bit of rhubarb into loaves or muffins gives that extra bit of tartness, which adds so much flavor to these recipes.

Rhubarb season is normally from April to June, but in the cold climate of Alberta, Canada, it goes right into the summer for us!

These recipes are great to have in the morning with coffee, or in the mid-day as a tasty snack. They’re great for picnics, outdoor events, or for kids when they get home from a long day at school.
