Rhubarb and vanilla cups, a simple and delicious dessert!
Rhubarb compote is very quickly ready. After I peel and cut my rhubarb in small chunk, I like to sprinkle it with sugar and let it sit for about 15 minutes, rhubarb will release so much water, unbelievable!
Then, you can cook it in its own water, drain it but keep this amazing syrup, you can cook the syrup away to thicken it and use it in your baking, to flavor cupcakes, quick breads or custards, delicious!
Here I served this rhubarb compote in cups, topped with vanilla pastry cream and a few shaved almonds. Rhubarb compote is sweet yet a little tart and pairs wonderfully with a velvety vanilla pastry cream, it’s a healthy fruity dessert.
