Loads of rhubarb make this fruity cake a teatime treat. If using frozen rhubarb, don't thaw it first.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup butter, softened
  • Cake:
  • 3 cups fresh or frozen chopped rhubarb
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup butter, softened
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Preparation

In bowl, stir together flour, granulated and brown sugars and cinnamon. Using fingers, rub in butter, squeezing to form clumps. Set aside.

Cake: In bowl, toss rhubarb with 2 tbsp (25 mL) of the sugar; set aside.

In large bowl, beat butter with remaining sugar until combined; beat in eggs, 1 at a time. Beat in vanilla.

In separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt ; stir into butter mixture alternately with sour cream, making 3 additions of dry ingredients and 2 of sour cream to make thick smooth batter. Spread in parchment paper-lined or greased 9-inch (2.5 L) square metal cake pan.

Sprinkle with half of the sugar mixture. Cover with rhubarb. Sprinkle with remaining sugar mixture. Bake in centre of 350°F (180°C) oven until tester inserted in centre of cake comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. (Make-ahead: Cover and set aside for up to 24 hours. Or remove from pan and overwrap in foil; freeze in airtight container for up to 2 weeks.)
