Strawberry rhubarb is a classic summer combination! You can make this recipe keto (grain-free, sugar-free) or gluten-free. When we made it, we did a sugar-free filling with a half keto and half gluten-free topping. We loved both!
On the Ingredients
- Strawberries are a very popular fruit cultivated around the world. They’re not technically a berry, but certainly colloquially so. They’re prized for their sweet flavor and the beauty of their deep red hue. Strawberries are also quite healthy, with many vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They’re also low in calories, with a high water content, and low on the glycemic index. (Read more about strawberries.)
- Rhubarb is the edible stalks of a herbaceous perennial plant. The leaves of the rhubarb plant are not edible, but the stalks can be harvested in the early summer and are prized in areas where the plant grows. It has a similar texture to celery. Rhubarb has a very tart flavor, usually mellowed by cooking it with sugar and other fruits. Beyond its delicious taste, rhubarb is high in fiber, nutrients, and antioxidants.
