STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB COFFEE CAKE



Strawberry-Rhubarb Coffee Cake image

The batter for this coffee cake recipe is much like that for a biscuit; chilled butter is cut in rather than creamed, which produces an uber-tender crumb. This recipe was developed by Emily Donahue for Rosey's Coffee and Tea in Hanover, New Hampshire.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 cups chilled unsalted butter, plus more, softened, for pan
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
1/3 cup cornstarch
2 3/4 cups sugar
1 pound strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 1/2 pounds rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch of salt
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush a 9-by-12-by-3-inch baking pan with butter, and set aside. Make fruit sauce: Combine lemon juice, cornstarch, and 1 cup sugar in a medium saucepan. Add strawberries and rhubarb; cook, stirring frequently, over medium heat, until rhubarb is soft and liquid has thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl; let cool.
  • Make the crumb topping: Combine 3/4 cup sugar and 3/4 cup flour in a medium bowl. Melt 1/4 cup butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Drizzle butter over flour mixture; using your hands, mix until crumbly. Set aside.
  • Make cake batter: Whisk together remaining 3 cups flour and 1 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Using a pastry knife or two forks, cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles coarse meal. In a separate bowl, mix eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla. Pour into flour mixture; stir to combine.
  • Spread half the cake batter evenly into the prepared pan. Top with half the fruit sauce. Carefully spread the remaining batter over the fruit, and top with the remaining fruit sauce. Sprinkle with the crumb topping.
  • Bake until cake is golden brown and springs back when touched in the center, about 1 hour. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature, cut into squares.

COUNTRY RHUBARB CAKE

Provided by Julia Moskin

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups all-purpose flour, more for work surface
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cup granulated sugar, more for sprinkling
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 stick (4 ounces) butter, cut into pieces, at cool room temperature
2 eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 pounds (about 8 stalks) rhubarb, thinly sliced
Light brown sugar and softly whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, sift flour, salt, 3 tablespoons sugar and the baking soda together. With fingers, rub in butter until mixture is sandy. Beat 1 egg and add to flour mixture. Add buttermilk and blend just until mixture forms dough; it will be quite stiff and sticky. Turn out onto a floured work surface and divide in two. Roll out each piece to fit a 10-inch round baking dish. Line bottom of pan with one round, pinching together any tears.
  • Cover dough with rhubarb and sprinkle rhubarb evenly with 1 heaping cup sugar. Place second pastry round on top and pinch edges together. Pinch together any holes. Beat remaining egg with 1 teaspoon water and brush it on dough.
  • Place a baking sheet in oven to catch drips, and place baking dish on it. Bake until crust is golden and rhubarb is soft and juicy, about 1 hour. Immediately sprinkle with granulated sugar. Serve warm, with a sprinkle of brown sugar and whipped cream on each serving.

Tips:

  • Don't overcook the rhubarb. It should be tender, but still have a little bit of crunch.

  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.

This rhubarb buttermilk tea cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The rhubarb gives the cake a tart and tangy flavor, while the buttermilk makes it moist and tender. The frosting is sweet and creamy, and it complements the cake perfectly.
