Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 cups rhubarb chopped into small pieces
- 2 3/4 cups strawberries sliced
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/3 cup coconut sugar
- 3 tablespoons arrowroot powder
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In medium to large pot (I used a ceramic dutch oven) add all of the ingredients. Turn heat to medium and let it reduce for 25-30 minutes (or until it's the consistancy you want), stirring often.
- At about the 15 minute mark it may start to get sticky. If it's sticking to the pot add water as needed (I did about 3/4 of a cup in total).
For Pie Filling
- If you would like a healthier strawberry rhubarb pie filling, you want to cook it enough where the fruit is soft but there is still texture (around the 20-22 minute mark).
