- 170 g whole wheat flour organic
- 30 g coconut flour organic
- 75 g xylitol organic

- 500 g frozen rhubarb organic
- a little bit water
- 1 tbsp xylitol organic
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp grated coconut organic
- 2 tbsp oatmeal organic
- 3-4 tbsp rhubarb cooking water
- 1 tsp raspberry powder optional
Instructions
- Mix flour, coconut flour, xylitol and butter in a bowl by hand until the mixture is crumbly. If your butter is not salty, add a pinch of salt.
- Place 75g of the mixture in a separate bowl and refrigerate. These are the crumbs for later.
- Add vegetable milk to the rest of the dough and mix to a dough. Put the dough in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 180 Celsius.
- Melt the coconut oil in a pan and grease the tray with it. Remove the dough from the fridge and form a cake crust (directly in the tray). I first formed the edge, pressed it down nicely and then the base. Place the formed crust in the fridge for another 10 minutes.
- Put the frozen rhubarb in a pan, cover the bottom of the pan lightly with water and simmer covered for about 10-15 minutes at medium heat until the rhubarb is soft enough.
- Pierce the bottom of the cake with a fork and bake the crust on the lowest rack for 10 minutes.
- Sieve the cooked rhubarb and collect the cooking liquid. Mix rhubarb pieces with grated coconut, xylitol, vanilla extract and oat flakes. Add 3 to 4 tablespoons rhubarb boiling water if it is too dry. The mixture should be puree-like. If you want a pink/pink colour, add raspberry powder.
- Take the cake out of the oven, pour in the rhubarb filling, smooth it down and sprinkle the crumbles over it. If they are too dry, add a tablespoon of rhubarb boiling water so that you can form nice crumbles.
- Put the cake back in the oven. Bake for 15 minutes on the lowest rack. Bake for another 10 minutes on the middle rack.
