water and the cornstarch in a large bowl .Stir to dissolve the sugar.
Allow to stand for 10 minutes. Pour the mixture in a heavy saucepan and
cook over medium heat until thickened. Stir often. Transfer the cooked
mixture to a 8-inch square baking dish and set aside.
Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon in a bowl. Cut in
the softened butter with a fork until moistened. Set aside.
Beat together the egg and milk until frothy, and add it to the flour
mixture while stirring just enough to moisten. Drop the topping onto the
rhubarb mixture creating 6 mounds. Bake for 20-25 minutes until topping is
browned.
Funny name, but it makes a great pie!
