1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Doubled the recipe, baked it in a 10" X 15" jelly roll pan, took it to church for fellowship, and it was LOVED. Two people were surprised they liked it because they "hate" rhubarb. Not anymore. :-)

I have made this a few times and am about to make it again for Resurrection Sunday. I use soft white whole wheat and softened coconut oil (a bit less than the butter) in the crust and will reduce the sugar in the topping. We are die hard rhubarb fans and most people up here say, "Wonderful, but use less sugar next time."

I made these for the first time to take to a church social - not one was left! And people were asking for the recipe. A definite hit.
