Number Of Ingredients 18

CAKE
2 c flour
3 Tbsp poppy seeds
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soad
1/2 tsp salt
1 large egg
1 1/4 c sugar (plus 1 t. for dusting the pan)
1 c buttermilk
3 Tbsp canola oil
1 Tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp vanilla
SAUCE
1 c rhubarb, diced
1 pt strawberries, hulled and halved
2/3 c water
2/3 c sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a Bundt pan with cooking spray then sprinkle with 1 T. sugar; tap out any extra.
  • 2. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, poppy seeds, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
  • 3. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg until frothy. Whisk in the sugar, buttermilk, canola oil, lemon juice, zest, and vanilla. Gradually stir the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients until just moistened. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  • 4. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until the cake tests done. Loosen the edges and invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • 5. Meanwhile, put the rhubarb, strawberries, water and sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower heat to simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens, about 20-25 minutes. Serve warm.

This cake was a bit of a disappointment. The cake itself was dry and the strawberry rhubarb sauce was too tart. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This is the best lemon poppy seed cake I've ever had! The cake is moist and flavorful, and the strawberry rhubarb sauce is the perfect topping. I will definitely be making this recipe again and again.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the strawberry rhubarb sauce was delicious. I would probably try making the cake with less sugar next time.

This cake is my new favorite! It's the perfect balance of sweet and tart, and the strawberry rhubarb sauce is to die for. I've already made it twice and I'm sure I'll be making it many more times in the future.

This cake was delicious! The poppy seeds added a nice crunch and the lemon flavor was perfect. The strawberry rhubarb sauce was also very good, but I think it would have been even better if I had used fresh strawberries and rhubarb.
