Allrecipes' editorial guidelines Published on January 8, 2021 Trending Videos Close this video player Photo: Stephanie B Strawberries and rhubarb make such a cute couple. Juicy sweet strawberries balance out the lip-puckering tartness of rhubarb. And since rhubarb can sometimes turn an unappetizing brownish color when you cook it, strawberries step in and make rhubarb look good by bringing ruby red color to the mix. Together they make a classic pairing that lots of us just can't get enough of. Here are 12 favorite ways to satisfy your strawberry rhubarb dessert cravings. 01 of 13 Strawberry Rhubarb Custard Pie View Recipe Oksana Seaman "One of the most delicious and easiest pie recipes I know," says Chef John. "I got this wonderful recipe from my mother Pauline, who I believe got it from my Aunt Angela. I love all their pies, but this might be my favorite." 02 of 13 Rhubarb, Strawberry, and Blueberry Cobblerette View Recipe naples34102 Be sure to serve this one warm so you can get the full effect of the delicious cinnamon-scented biscuit topping. You can follow the recipe to make one big pan, or make individual cobblers in ramekins (as shown in the photo). Knock a few minutes off the baking time if you do make mini cobblers. 03 of 13 Chef John's Rhubarb Crisp View Recipe Chef John Rhubarb tried to grab all the spotlight by not letting strawberry share the recipe title, but there's plenty of strawberry in there, too. If you've never worked with big stalks of rhubarb before, Chef John shows you how to chop it up into evenly sized pieces. 04 of 13 Rhubarb Strawberry Jam View Recipe tjallan Okay, it's not a dessert by itself, but spoon it over ice cream and you're in for a treat. This refrigerator jam is a snap to make, and you don't have to deal with boiling jars for canning. You simply fill the jars with the delicious mixture and store it in the fridge for up to a month, if you can make it last that long. 05 of 13 Strawberry Rhubarb Sauce View Recipe Blaine Moats Simmer strawberries and rhubarb together to make a sweet/tart sauce to go over ice cream, cheesecake, or angel food cake and pound cake — or you can layer it with yogurt and granola to make colorful parfaits, as shown. 06 of 13 Grandma Moyer's Rhubarb and Strawberry Coffee Cake View Recipe Teresa T-Rex ecker "This was my Grandma Moyer's recipe" says BobbieRocks.

Now that she's shared it with us, it's getting rave reviews. 07 of 13 Rhubarb Strawberry Crunch View Recipe Kim's Cooking Now "This came out wonderfully! Super simple and easy to make, this is a great summer crowd-pleaser," says CuppaTeaGirl. "I followed the recipe exactly, and I thought it was the perfect ratio of fruit to crunchy topping. I served it warmed up with vanilla ice cream at a BBQ, and people were raving about it." 08 of 13 Fried PB & J View Recipe Matt Wencl There's a surprise ingredient in these miniature fried pies. (I'll bet you can guess what it is.) Recipe creator Matt Wencl says, "Use another jam or jelly if you like, but tartness really matters here, and this jam comes together quickly. These are best eaten shortly after frying, while the crescent is crisp and the peanut butter is melted. Dust with confectioners' sugar!" 09 of 13 Rosy Strawberry Rhubarb Applesauce View Recipe LauraF Sweet strawberries and tart rhubarb invite fresh apples to the party, and the result is this gorgeous collaboration of flavor and color.
