Step‑by‑Step Instructions for 3 Ingredient Rhubarb Squares
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your ingredients and equipment.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine melted butter, sugar, and flour until you achieve coarse crumbs, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Press half of the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of your prepared baking pan, taking about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Mix chopped fresh rhubarb with the remaining sugar in another bowl, coating evenly, for about 2 minutes.
  5. Spread the rhubarb mixture evenly over the crust in the baking pan, using a spatula.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture evenly over the rhubarb layer, covering it completely.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the top is golden brown. Let the aroma fill your kitchen.
  8. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely in the pan for about 30 minutes before cutting.
