Topping Ingredients
- ¼ cup brown sugar

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray; dust with 1 tablespoon flour.

- Stir 1 cup flour, ¾ teaspoon cinnamon, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl; add to the butter mixture and beat to combine into a batter.
- Fold rhubarb into the batter. Pour batter into prepared baking dish.
- Mix ¼ cup brown sugar, ¼ cup flour, 2 tablespoons butter, and ½ teaspoon cinnamon together in a bowl using a fork to achieve a crumbly consistency; sprinkle over the top of the batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

Notes
- Do not over-mix. Over-mixing this coffee cake recipe can lead to a dry and tough coffee cake.
- Don’t overbake: This cake is best when it is baked perfectly. Baking your coffee cake too long will result in a dry cake. Check your cake with a toothpick, it is done when the toothpick comes out clean.
- Use fresh rhubarb for the best flavor.
- Grease and flour your pan to ensure proper baking and removal from the pan once cooked.
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting the cake batter for a smooth texture.
