Not a fan. The rhubarb was too tart for my taste, even with the coconut and crumble topping. I think I'll stick to traditional rhubarb pie.

I've never been a big fan of rhubarb, but this dessert changed my mind. The coconut and crumble topping really mellowed out the tartness of the rhubarb. It was delicious!
