Late spring and summer is rhubarb season! We love to eat rhubarb throughout the summer in the form of pies and different desserts. I have usually had rhubarb crumble pies that are absolutely delicious. I tried this gooey and caramelized version of the rhubarb pie the first time when my mother-in-law made it and it’s even more delicious than the traditional crumble pie. The taste is a perfect balance of sweet and sour complemented by the caramelized dough. Absolutely perfect with vanilla sauce or vanilla ice cream.
