Baked Rhubarb

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

Unsalted butter, softened, for the dish
1 pound rhubarb, leaves discarded and stalks cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butter an 8-inch-square baking dish; set aside. Put the rhubarb, sugar, and corn syrup in a medium bowl. Scrape in the vanilla seeds, and add the pod. Toss together.
