  • Author: ushinzomr

Description

This Rhubarb Crumble Cake is a delightful combination of tart rhubarb and buttery crumble, creating a perfect dessert for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups rhubarb, chopped
  • 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a bowl, mix the chopped rhubarb with 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and vanilla extract. Set aside to let the rhubarb release some moisture.
  3. In a separate mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
  5. Gradually add the milk to the batter, stirring until smooth.
  6. Fold the rhubarb mixture into the batter until evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly.
  8. In another bowl, combine brown sugar, rolled oats, and a pinch of salt. Mix in 1/4 cup of melted butter until crumbly.
  9. Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the top of the cake batter.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  11. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • This cake can be served warm or at room temperature.
  • Adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream complements the tartness of the rhubarb beautifully.
