Apple and Rhubarb Slice

Posted on June 16, 2014 6 Comments

Apple and Rhubarb Slice - super easy recipe.

I seem to be saying thank you with food quite a bit lately, but sometimes people do things that seem to inspire something more than just saying thanks.

This happens to me quite often, especially when it involves people caring for my kids. I am always overwhelmingly grateful when others are there to help my kids. In those situations, a simple ‘thanks so much’ just doesn’t seem enough… so I bake.

Sending an apple and rhubarb slice to school doesn’t seem enough either, but it’s something, and it makes me feel good, and hopefully it helps some wonderful teachers to know that they are appreciated.

    This looks lovely. I’ve never cooked with rhubarb before and am a bit apprehensive – any suggestions for a substitute?

      Just add more apple and leave out the rhubarb so use 2 small apples sliced….throwing in a handful of dried cranberries with the apples is yum too!

    what’s SR flour? Can you replace with a gluten-free alternative?

      Oh sorry I should have been more specific… SR flour is self raising flour – in Australia we have flour that already has the rising agents mixed in.

      You could definitely replace the flour with a gluten free alternative you’d just have to add 4 tsp of baking powder or 2 tsp of cream of tar tar and 2 tsp of cream of tar tar and 1 tsp of bicarb soda to the 2 cups of flour. I am not sure if the lack of gluten would affect the slice in other ways though.
