Here’s another rhubarb recipe from me, a certified rhubarb addict. blackberry and rhubarb plus almond paste is super delicious together. I definitely did not eat this for dinner all in one sitting. (i did!)
when rhubarb is combined with enough sugar and some complementary flavors like berries and almonds, in my humble opinion, it becomes the crowned winner for ‘most delicious fruit’ award. bryan and i ate this pie in about 2 sittings between the 2 of us.
