How to Make Rhubarb Sauce

Start by gathering the following ingredients:

• 1 pound of chopped rhubarb (fresh or frozen)
• ⅓ cup granulated sugar
• ⅛ teaspoon cinnamon
• 3 tablespoons strawberry jam (raspberry jam can be substituted)

Instructions:

1. Simmer the rhubarb and sugar for about 10 minutes, until tender.
2. Stir in the cinnamon and jam.

How to Serve It

This is a fruit compote, and although you can eat it right off a spoon, we like it best served with something. You can serve it warm or chilled with ice cream, pound cake, yogurt, oatmeal, pancakes/waffles, and more.

Our favorite way to enjoy it is spooned over vanilla ice cream and topped with crushed graham crackers or biscoff cookies.

Stay well. I will see you back here soon.
