- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Beat together the light brown sugar, softened butter, vanilla extract, and egg in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy and well blended.
- Gradually add the all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and baking powder, mixing until a dough forms.
- Fold in the finely diced rhubarb until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a 1-inch cookie dough scoop, form balls of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the cookies for 12 to 14 minutes or until they are baked through and lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 2 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Do not overbake for a chewy texture. Fresh rhubarb provides the best flavor and texture.
