- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- pinch salt
- 5 tablespoons butter, cold and chopped into pieces
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice

- 1 cup rhubarb, cut into 1/2" dice
- 1 egg beaten with a bit of water
- 1 tablespoon sugar for topping
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F
- Place flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and butter into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until the butter bits are the size of small peas. Pour the mixture into a large mixing bowl and add the heavy cream, orange juice, egg and orange zest. Mix with a fork until loosely incorporated and then add the rhubarb and knead together with your hands.
- On a baking sheet, form the dough into a flattened disk, about 12-14 inches in diameter. Cut the disk into wedges and paint them with egg wash. Sprinkle with sugar.
