Step-by-Step Method
Prepare the oven and tray
Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease a square tray (approximately 23x23 cm) or line it with baking paper; so the slices come out easily.
Rhubarb and stir in sugar
Mix the chopped rhubarb with granulated sugar in a bowl. Let the rhubarb wait while you prepare the dough to release its water.
Beat oil and brown sugar
Mix the shortening and brown sugar until it looks smooth and crumbles. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Add dry ingredients
Add baking soda, salt, cinnamon and flour. Mix with a spatula until combined; Do not beat too much so that the bars do not harden. Add vanilla.
Create layers
Spread about half of the dough by pressing it onto the bottom of the tray. Distribute the sugared rhubarb evenly over it. Sprinkle the remaining dough in small pieces on top and press lightly.
Bake
Bake for about 45 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the edges are set. When it comes out of the oven, let it cool completely on the tray; If you cut it hot it may fall apart.
Slice and serve
Cut the cooled bar into 24 pieces. If you want, sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving; It is balanced with the sourness of rhubarb.
