The combination of crispy dough and sweet and sour rhubarb filling is perfect for these hot spring days.

Rhubarb stems are a great ingredient for desserts, as they have a pleasant refreshing taste and are very healthy and versatile. Rhubarb is great in compotes, strudels, muffins and other pastries. Because much of rhubarb is water, it has very few calories and is high in vitamin C, B vitamins, vitamin K, potassium, calcium, manganese and strengthens the immune system.

This time we prepared a delicious rhubarb galette, which is very similar to a pie, the only difference is that we don’t need a special baking pan, as we shape the dough freely: roll out the dough, spread the filling  in the middle and fold the dough over the filling. Preparation is very easy and fast, so it is suitable for both beginners and experienced masters in the kitchen. Although it’s very easy to prepare, the taste and appearance are divine. The sweet and sour rhubarb filling and crispy dough sprinkled with powdered sugar create an extremely refreshing dessert. If you are not a fan of rhubarb, you can also use other fruits (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, apples) for the filling and create your own version of the galette.
