Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 3 cups Fresh rhubarb, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

Step 6

Gently fold in the chopped rhubarb using a spatula, ensuring it's evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and brown sugar. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the batter for a sweet, spiced topping.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
