Roasted Rhubarb Coupe with Macadamia Crumble Recipe

  • 1 1/2 pounds rhubarb, cut into 1/2″ pieces
  • 1/3 cup dry red wine
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup chopped macadamia nuts
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 2/3 cup chilled heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
  • 1 pint vanilla ice cream
  • 1 pint lemon ice cream or sorbet
  1. Preheat oven to 350°. Combine rhubarb, wine, granulated sugar, and salt in an 8×8″ baking dish, scrape in seeds from vanilla bean, and toss to combine; discard pod. Roast, tossing halfway through, until rhubarb is very tender but not falling apart, 25–30 minutes; let cool.
  2. Combine flour, macadamia nuts, granulated sugar, salt, and vanilla in a medium bowl.
  3. Using your fingers, work butter into flour mixture until mixture holds together when squeezed. Break up into small clumps and scatter onto a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, tossing halfway through, until crumble is golden brown, 15–20 minutes. Let cool.
  4. Beat cream in a small bowl to soft peaks and whisk in powdered sugar.
  5. Scoop vanilla and lemon ice cream into glasses and top with roasted rhubarb, whipped cream, and crumble.
