You could try other, lighter dairy (yogurt + milk?), but I can't attest to the results. Kristy - I personally have no experience with frozen rhubarb, but I don't see why it wouldn't work!

I'm not sure if roasting was the reason but my dough turned out too wet to pat out and cut, so I just dropped scoops onto the pan. No worries otherwise - the result was a lovely texture and the flavor was delicious! Thank you for the recipe.

Because these are absolutely fabulous - I love that plate too, it's just so bright and cheerful. Given that breakfasts for me tend to be scones, this sounds just perfect. One more reason to buy rhubarb more often! Have I mentioned how gorgeous your photos are? Because these are absolutely fabulous – I love that plate too, it’s just so bright and cheerful.

It's fixed now. You can substitute a lot of things for the rhubarb. Strawberries would be good. The original recipe calls for fresh cranberries. (Because I'm sure those are oh-so-plentiful where you live!) But, if you use something sweeter than ultra-tart cranberries and rhubarb, don't use the 3 tablespoons of sugar that goes with the fruit. treewhisperer - Yes, your favorite plate is very popular! :) We took home 2 green plates from our shopping spree that day - I've used one, but haven't published the entry yet.
