Our Favourite Rhubarb Recipes
One thing we really love to create recipes with is fresh rhubarb – mainly because we grow it in the garden and always have an excess of it. It’s so lovely to find new things to make and bake and something the children always love as they get to see the rhubarb’s journey from the garden to their plate.
I thought it would be nice to put together all our rhubarb recipes in one place to give you more inspiration when you next have rhubarb to use up. Click through for the full recipes, method, cooking times and ingredients.
Banana and Rhubarb Loaf Cake Recipe
Our Rhubarb and Banana Loaf Cake is a great way to use up both rhubarb and overripe bananas. Full of fruity flavour, it’s a fantastic bake that works well alongside a cup of tea or for dessert, served with custard.
Rhubarb and Apple Crumble Cake Recipe
This Rhubarb and Apple Crumble Cake is another great dessert bake. The crumble topping instantly makes it seem fancier than a typical bake and adds much more interest than a typical loaf cake. It’s delicious and perfect for any occasion.
Ginger and Rhubarb Loaf Cake Recipe
Another great loaf cake is this Ginger and Rhubarb Cake. Full of ginger and fruit flavours, the glace ginger adds a really lovely texture to the bake and it’s a firm family favourite. Perfect to enjoy as part of an afternoon tea spread or for dessert.
Rhubarb and Yoghurt Cake Recipe
We love adding yogurt to bakes and this Rhubarb and Yogurt Loaf Cake is light, moist and delicious. Full of fruit flavour, it’s a bake that everyone will really enjoy and a great way of using up rhubarb throughout the rhubarb season.
Rhubarb and Orange Muffins Recipe
If you prefer individual bakes, these Rhubarb and Orange Muffins are perfect for lunchboxes, taking on a picnic or even having for breakfast. Simple to make and delicious.
Easy Banana Rhubarb Muffins Recipe
Another fantastic individual bake recipe are these Banana and Rhubarb Muffins. Great for using up not just rhubarb but overripe bananas too, they’re delicious for breakfast, picnics or a snack at any time of the day.
Our Super Easy Rhubarb Flapjack Recipe
For something different, a sweet Rhubarb Flapjack could be just the thing. Full of rhubarb flavour, this flapjack is reminiscent of cake but with that wonderful flapjack texture. Moreish and delicious.
Rhubarb and Ginger Traybake Recipe
This is a super easy bake that you can make for a gathering. Full of flavour, it’s great by itself or served with custard. The glace ginger gives it a lovely flavour that compliments the rhubarb perfectly.
Oaty Rhubarb Crumble Recipe
You can’t go wrong with a classic rhubarb crumble and our Oaty Rhubarb Crumble is delicious. With oats added to the crumble topping, it’s the perfect dessert. We love to serve the lovely tart rhubarb crumble warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream or custard and it’s a staple pudding in our house.
If you have an Air Fryer, then Katy Kicker’s Air Fryer Rhubarb Crumble could be a great alternative and she also has a delicious Rhubarb and Pineapple Crumble recipe too.
Slow Cooker Rhubarb Crumble Recipe
For a dessert that’s ready when you are, our Slow Cooker Rhubarb Crumble is pretty wonderful. Leave it to cook and it’ll be ready straight after dinner – hearty, warming and so tasty too.
Rhubarb and Ginger Crumble
If you like a more traditional crumble, this Rhubarb and Ginger Crumble is oven baked, full of flavour and really nice and warming. Perfect for the colder months and to simply enjoy through the autumn.
Rhubarb and Gooseberry Crumble
Another great option is our Rhubarb and Gooseberry Crumble which is such a fantastic flavour combination. A timeless classic that the whole family will love.

I always get given rhubarb from my dad and his friends and only end up making boring crumble. These are some fantastic ideas. I think I am going to have to try your rhubarb flapjacks. x
My favourite rhubarb recipe is the rhubarb and ginger crumble! Well done for the list. I will definitely try the meringue 🙂
