Homemade Rhubarb Crumble: a garden-to-table recipe [EN/FR]
There is something deeply satisfying about having a vegetable garden. That moment when you harvest what you’ve seen grow, day after day. It’s a simple joy, but it makes you extremely proud. And even more so when it ends up on a good plate.
This time, it’s a bit of rhubarb we picked. Not enough to fill jars of jam, but more than enough for a good homemade crumble. And honestly, we didn’t need more to enjoy it for three days.
Because yes, we made enough for eight people so we could enjoy it several days in a row. This recipe will therefore be for eight people. It’s up to you to adapt the quantities depending on what you have on hand.
The ingredients:
- 100 g of butter,
- 4 or 5 stalks of rhubarb,
- 2 good pinches of fleur de sel,
- 200 g of flour,
- 160 g of sugar,
- A good dose of good mood!
The recipe:
In a bowl, mix the 200 g of flour with the 160 g of sugar. I didn’t mention it in the ingredients, but it’s brown sugar.
Then add the salt. It’s the little trick that enhances the flavors of sugar, butter, and fruit. And above all, if like me you don’t like sugar too much, it prevents the taste from being too “heavy” or sickening.
To finish the crumble (yes, it’s super quick) add the 100 g of butter and mix well until you get a kind of very crumbly dough.
Once your preparation is ready, peel the rhubarb and cut it into small cubes.
Now you just have to assemble. Again, it’s really simple, since you just have to butter an oven dish, spread the rhubarb in it, and put your preparation on top:
Put it all in the oven at 180 degrees for 25 minutes and that’s it!
25 minutes is just enough time to do the dishes and have a quick game of pétanque.
And when coming back into the house, a beautiful height of crumble still piping hot!
Now it’s your turn!

Il y a quelque chose de profondément satisfaisant dans le fait d’avoir un potager. Ce moment où tu récoltes ce que tu as vu pousser, jour après jour. C’est un bonheur simple, mais ça rend extrêmement fier. Et encore plus quand ça finit dans une bonne assiette.
Cette fois, c’est un peu de rhubarbe qu’on a récupérée. Pas de quoi remplir des pots de confiture, mais largement assez pour un bon crumble maison. Et franchement, il ne nous en fallait pas plus pour nous régaler trois jours dessus.
Car oui, nous en avons fait suffisamment pour huit personnes afin d'en profiter plusieurs jours de suite. Cette recette sera donc pour huit personnes. À vous d'adapter les doses en fonction de ce que vous avez sous la main.
Les ingrédients :
- 100 g de beurre,
- 4 ou 5 tiges de rhubarbe,
- 2 bonnes pincées de fleur de sel,
- 200 g de farine,
- 160 g de sucre,
- Une bonne dose de bonne humeur !
La recette :
Dans un récipient, mélangez les 200 g de farine avec les 160 g de sucre. Je ne l'ai pas dit dans les ingrédients, mais c'est de la cassonade.
Ajoutez ensuite le sel. C'est la petite technique permettant de renforcer les arômes du sucre, du beurre et des fruits. Et surtout, si comme moi, vous n'aimez pas trop le sucre, il évite que le goût soit trop "lourd" ou écœurant.
Pour en finir avec le crumble — oui, c'est super rapide — ajoutez les 100 g de beurre et mélangez bien jusqu'à obtenir une sorte de pâte très sableuse.
Une fois votre préparation prête, épluchez la rhubarbe et coupez-la en petits dés.
Il ne vous reste plus qu'à assembler. Là encore, c'est vraiment simple, puisque vous n'avez qu'à beurrer un plat allant au four, y étaler la rhubarbe et déposer par-dessus votre préparation :
Enfournez tout ça à 180 degrés pendant 25 minutes et le tour est joué !
25 minutes, c'est pile le temps qu'il faut pour faire la vaisselle et aller faire une rapide partie de pétanque.
Avec, en rentrant dans la maison, une superbe hauteur de crumble encore tout chaud !
À vous de jouer !

The recipe is clear and easy to follow. Fresh rhubarb from the garden makes it even more special.
Thank you for having me, and thank you for enjoying me! Things in the garden really have something extra!
Hi @genesisledger
In the recipes you submit to this community, you must appear in the photos (so we can see your face) making the recipes. This will prevent your account from being permanently muted in this community.
I just read your remark about the absence of a picture of me cooking. I'm a little surprised, because this rule applies, according to official guidelines, only to the first publications in the community. However, I have now been publishing here regularly for more than two years, with content that is still home-made, appreciated, and validated so far without worry.
If the rules have changed recently, it would be useful to update them clearly, rather than adding requirements on the fly. Of course, I am committed to following the instructions, but they must still be consistent, applicable to all, and written in black and white.
Does moderation work on the basis of clear rules or personal impressions?
Thank you for the time you spend in the community 👍🙏

You know, I grew tons of rhubarb and hardly ate it and am now down to one plant. This makes me want to put the plants back hahah
Don't deprive yourself of it. Here, it's not too late in the season to plant, so I can't put others in the vegetable garden at my house.
Next year, in addition to the house, I'm thinking of planting some on the grounds where my tiny house is located. Rhubarb is a water-loving plant, and my tiny house is on a wetland.
So why not plant five or six and let them make a living? Then when I spend weekends in my tiny house, I'll have desserts!
My problem is I don't much like or use sugar! But I have seen some nice savoury rhubarb recipes I'd like to try!
