Sue asked for the recipe for this yesterday so here it is. It is sort of a cross between a cake and a pudding. You can also make it with peaches or anything else you fancy.
Spiced rhubarb cake
75g sugar
100g self raising flour
100g butter
2 eggs
1 tsp ground ginger
1tsp mixed spice
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cream the butter and sugar, add eggs, fold in flour and spices. Mix well and spoon into a greased 8” / 26cm cake tin.
600g rhubarb
sugar for sprinkling
Chop rhubarb into 1” pieces, place on top of cake mixture and sprinkle with a little sugar
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
75g butter
50g Demerara sugar
100g flour
Rub butter and flour together to a breadcrumb consistency and add sugar. Cover the rhubarb with the crumble topping
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bake at 180 degrees (160 fan) / gas mark 4
check after 45 minutes (we gave ours another 10 minutes)
Think that might have been me that asked, so thank you very much for sharing it! Peaches sound good too!
ReplyDeleteI want to try this
ReplyDeleteSuper cake. Thank you Sharron!
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen a recipe like that before! It's sort of having your cake and your pudding and eating them both. I'll try it.
