Delicious Rhubarb Cake Recipe

Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
½ cup softened butter
½ cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking powder
A pinch of salt
250 g rhubarb, washed and cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons additional flour for coating the rhubarb
For the topping:
½ cup sliced almonds
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon melted butter

Method
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a round cake pan with a little butter and lightly dust it with flour.

2. Beat the butter and sugar well until the mixture becomes light and creamy.
Add the eggs one at a time, continuing to beat, then add the vanilla.

3. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt.

4. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Stir gently until well combined.

5. Toss the rhubarb pieces with the 2 tablespoons of flour, then add them to the cake batter. Gently stir until evenly distributed.

6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the surface. Sprinkle the sliced almonds over the top, followed by the sugar, then drizzle the melted butter over them.

7. Bake for 40–50 minutes, or until the cake is fully cooked and golden on top. Check by inserting a wooden skewer into the center; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.

8. Let the cake cool slightly before removing it from the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature with tea or coffee.
