Serves 8. Recipe adapted from Floating Kitchen.

Provided by alaskafromscratch

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup + 1 tablespoon sugar, divided
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1 orange, zested
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup almond flour (a.k.a. almond meal)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 heaping cups sliced rhubarb (cut into 1 inch slices)
1/2 cup sliced almonds
powdered sugar for dusting

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 10-inch springform pan with non-stick spray. Line the bottom of the pan with a round of parchment paper. Spray the parchment paper as well. Set aside. 2. In the bowl of a stand-mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream 1 cup of the sugar and the butter together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Turn the speed down on the mixer and add the eggs one at a time, followed by the sour cream, orange zest, vanilla, and almond extract. 3. In another bowl, stir together the flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until combined. With the mixer on low, add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients gradually, scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl as needed, until everything is combined. The dough will be thick and sticky. 4. Using an offset spatula, spread half of the batter evenly into the prepared springform pan. Distribute half of the rhubarb over top of the batter in a single layer. Spread the remaining batter over the rhubarb. Distribute the remaining rhubarb on top of the cake. Sprinkle with almonds, then sprinkle everything with the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar. 5. Bake until browned and set in the center, about 60-70 minutes. Allow the cake to stand on a cooling rack on the counter for at least 10 minutes before releasing from the springform pan. Dust the cake with powdered sugar, then slice and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh rhubarb: Fresh rhubarb has a tart and tangy flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweet almond filling. If you don't have fresh rhubarb, you can use frozen rhubarb, but be sure to thaw it and drain it thoroughly before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in a tough, dry cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a bundt pan: A bundt pan is the traditional pan for coffee cake, and it gives the cake a beautiful shape. If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature: Almond rhubarb coffee cake is best served warm or at room temperature. You can store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Almond rhubarb coffee cake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. With its sweet almond filling and tart rhubarb topping, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
