In Wien, the elderflower blossoms in late May. Huge bushes with clusters of scented white flowers appear in each and every park and yard. Their blossoms are used for the syrup, which is extremely popular here. It is added to pastry, lemonades, cocktails. The today’s most fashionable summer cocktail Hugo is made from elderflower syrup.

The elderflower season tallies with the rhubarb season, so their combination for a pie is ideal.

Try this fluffy and sweet pie with sour notes of the rhubarb and fragrant sweetness of the elderflower syrup, which the pie is soaked with.

Delicious! 🙂

Steps

Done

Prepare the rhubarb. Remove and discard the leaves. Wash, but don’t peel. Cut into 0.7-1 cm thick pieces.

2
Done

Melt the butter and set aside to cool.

3
Done

Add all the dry ingredients to a bowl: sifted flour, leaven, sugar, vanilla sugar, salt. Mix well.

4
Done

Add the eggs. Mix with a hand mixer at low speed, then increase speed to a maximum and mix for 1 min. The mixture will become lighter and bigger in volume.

5
Done

Mixing at low speed, fold in the melted butter. As soon as all the butter was added, increase speed to medium and mix for another 30-60 sec. The mixture will get smoother.

6

Pour in the batter, making the surface even. Bake at 150 degrees Celsius for 40-50 min until golden brown.

10
Done

Turn off the heat. Let the pie chill in the oven for 10 min, then open the oven door slightly and let stand for another 5 min.

11
Done

Take the pie out of the oven. While the pie is still hot, coat the surface with elderflower syrup. Pour the syrup into a bowl or a cup, take a pastry brush and, dipping it into the syrup, spread it on the surface of the pie. The syrup absorbs very quickly, so as soon as it has absorbed, coat the pie again. Continue until all the syrup has been absorbed. Then let the pie cool completely.

Release the pie, garnish it with elderflower or sugar icing.
