My great-aunt gave me this rhubarb cake recipe. It's especially delicious when rhubarb is in season, and tastes even better with the old-fashioned milk topping. But you'll love it even with frozen rhubarb and "modern-day" whipped topping! -Mairlyn Homola, Hazel, South Dakota

RHUBARB CINNAMON CAKE



Rhubarb Cinnamon Cake image

My update to a fairly common recipe, inspired when I was gifted with several kilos of rhubarb this spring from my in-laws' garden! It's a dense, moist, pudding style cake rather than a light, crumbly tea-time one. The cinnamon sugar topping is much more practical than other variants, you could ice (frost) it with cream cheese icing, in which case leave off the sugar and cinnamon at the end but this may just be too rich? Let me know how it turns out if you do. It keeps for 3-4 days refrigerated and is even better the day after making. serve warmed with double cream or cool with a cup of tea.

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 Large cake, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

120 g butter, at room temperature, plus extra for greasing the cake tin
300 g caster sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
250 g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
2 teaspoons bicarbonate of soda
230 ml semi skim milk
1 teaspoon lemon juice
500 g rhubarb, chopped fairly small (but see note in method, below.)
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
100 g light brown sugar

Steps:

  • Pre-heat the oven to 180°C.
  • Prepare a 25cm / 10in cake tin by greasing thoroughly and dusting with a fine layer of plain flour.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy. add in the egg and vanilla extract and mix well.
  • Mix together the semi-skimmed milk and lemon juice. add to the other ingredients and beat until combined.
  • Add the bicarbonate of soda and then gradually add the flour, beating well after each addition. Add two teaspons of the cinnamon, and mix until it is all well combined.
  • Take the chopped rhubarb (I divide the stalks into two longwise, then chop into slices about the thickness of a one Pound / Euro coin).
  • NOTE As the rhubarb is cut small it will rise, giving a rhubarby "layer" on top of the cake. If you don't like this idea, don't cut the rhubarb so small - keep it in 1cm or so chunks and dust it with a very little plain flour before incorporating. Fold it into the cake batter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared tin and level with the back of a spoon.
  • Sprinkle the top with the light brown sugar (use less if you don't have a sweet tooth), crumbling any lumps between your fingers as you go.
  • Finally sprinkle the top with the remaining teaspon of cinnamon - or more to taste.
  • Bake in the centre of the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Leave to cool in the tin for 15 mins, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

SOUR CREAM RHUBARB COFFEE CAKE



Sour Cream Rhubarb Coffee Cake image

This is an 'any time of day' cake that my mom used to make. Good warm or cold, this cake is incredibly moist inside, while the surface has a tiny bit of crisp from the sugar granules. Tangy rhubarb and sour cream are offset by the sweet cake and sugar sprinkle. It is DE-lish!

Tips:

  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Be sure to grease and flour your baking pan before adding the batter. This will help the cake to come out of the pan easily.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will take about 45-50 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • If you don't have cream cheese, you can use sour cream or Greek yogurt instead.
  • For a vegan frosting, you can use vegan cream cheese or coconut cream.
  • Decorate the cake with fresh rhubarb, berries, or a sprinkling of cinnamon sugar.
