Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler

One of my favourite things in the spring is seeing my rhubarb make an appearance in my perennial garden. After a long winter, it’s such a treat to enjoy garden fresh produce again.

In this tart seasonal cobbler the sugar doesn’t overpower the fruit flavour.

Serve with ice cream or a slice of cheddar cheese.
