4.3.09 Rhubarb-Strawberry Cobbler with Cinnamon & Cardamom


And while I’m not much of a pie person these days (rolling out the dough is just NOT for me!), this Cobbler recipe from Bon Appétit was calling my name. It is sweet, slightly tart, juicy and has a wonderful crumble crunch, thanks to the almonds. This is a new rhubarb memory I will not soon be forgetting.
