Tips:

  • Choose fresh, firm rhubarb: Look for stalks that are bright red or pink, with no blemishes or bruises. Avoid rhubarb that is limp or wilted.
  • Prepare the rhubarb properly: Trim the ends of the rhubarb stalks and remove any leaves. Slice the rhubarb into 1-inch pieces.
  • Use a combination of sugars: This recipe uses both granulated sugar and brown sugar for a more complex flavor. If you don't have brown sugar, you can use all granulated sugar.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help the cake rise evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

This rhubarb coffee cake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a tangy rhubarb filling and a sweet, crumbly topping. It's sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
