Equipment

  • 9x13 baking dish

Ingredients

Dough

Topping

  • 4 eggs divided (cold eggs)
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 pack vanilla sugar
  • 300 grams vanilla yogurt
  • 90 grams powdered vanilla pudding
  • 3 tbsp flour all purpose
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 5 cups chopped rhubarb

Instructions

Dough

  • Mix all ingredients together until the dough is crumbly.
  • Add egg and continue mixing. Do not over mix the dough. It just needs to have a consistency of being able to roll out the dough.
  • If dough appears too dry, add 1 tbsp yogurt or sour cream.
  • If dough appears too wet, add 1 tbsp flour.
  • Roll the dough out on a flat, floured surface to the size of the pan (approx 9x13 in size). Transfer to the pan.

For Topping

  • Using a clean and dry mixing bowl, add the egg whites and mix on medium speed for 2-3 minutes. Then switch to high speed until egg white peaks form.
  • Transfer egg whites to a separate bowl and put aside for time being.
  • Add the egg yolks with sugars to the mixing bowl and mix on medium speed for 5 minutes. When creamy in texture, add yogurt and continue mixing.
  • Reduce speed to low, add powdered pudding and flour and cinnamon. Mix just until combined.
  • Using a wooden spoon, add chopped rhubarb and egg whites to the flour mixture and stir in one direction just until all are combined. 
  • Preheat the oven at 370F. Pour over top of the dough. Bake for 50 minutes. 
  • Remove from the oven and cool. Sprinkle top with icing sugar if desired. Serve a la mode.
