This easy Rhubarb Cake is a delicious and wonderful dessert or breakfast cake. Similar to a coffee cake, this recipe has sweet and tart chunks of rhubarb throughout making it nice and moist!

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x9-inch pan with parchment paper.
- Cream brown sugar and butter for 2 minutes until light. Add egg and vanilla and mix well, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl.
- Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, mixing just until combined. Stir in the milk.
- Toss the rhubarb with the remaining tablespoon of flour, then fold into the cake batter. Spread into the prepared pan.
- Combine the sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle over the top of the cake. Bake at 350°F for 40-45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Notes
- This cake can be baked in a smaller 8x8-inch pan, but will take a few minutes longer to bake. Or for a thinner cake, you can bake this in a 9x13-inch pan for 30-35 minutes.
- The original recipe had twice the amount of sugar sprinkled on top, plus an extra 1/4 cup in the cake. It was delicious, but definitely on the sweet side, so I cut it back to the measurements shown above.
