I was searching the forum on Sunday for a rhubarb recipe after a little harvest from the garden, and came across a thread called "rhubarb recipes" (sorry, no idea how to link on tapatalk). Among the suggestions for using rhubarb was a non-tmx cake from Trudy.
I thought it sounded nice, and thought I would give it a go. It was a big hit. I gave a chunk to my MIL and FIL and my MIL thinks I should sell it in a cafe. The topping is scrummy!
So thanks Trudy for posting it, and I hope you don't mind me adding it here separately:
RHUBARB COFFEE CAKE
Ingredients:
90g brown sugar
85g white sugar (actually I used raw as I had no white)
130g oil
1 egg
250g sour milk (milk with a few drops of vinegar added)
1tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
360g self raising flour
240g chopped rhubarb (1-2cm pieces)
Place all in the tmx bowl and mix 7sec, sp4.
Pour into prepared cake tin
Mix together topping (I didn't use the thermomix for this part):
1/2 cup brown sugar, 1tsp cinnamon, 1tblsp melted butter, 2tblsp chopped almonds.
Sprinkle over the cake batter.
Bake at 180deg for approx 50 mins until a skewer comes out clean.

Katiej - Had a slight "oops" moment and opened the oven when I shouldn't have, causing the cake to sink in the middle. As my DH is allergic to nuts, I used oats instead of almonds in the topping.
DH had a mate over for dinner last night and we had some with cream for dessert. Everyone said it was delicious! Thanks for the recipe.

Jamberie - These really are lovely!
I'm trying to use ingredients that I have had in the cupboard for too long so substituted lemon flavoured tea for 5g Lemon Myrtle. And I didn't have any lemon oil so used the zest of one lemon.
They were sooo lovely 5/5 for the end product and 5/5 for the dough (I was lucky to have any make it to the oven!)
Next time I would like to try to the tea, because I'm sure it would be lovely too. Thanks for another great recipe Chookie.
I made 16 and have another log to use in the freezer.

That looks delicious Jo, I have some rhubarb I should pick too. I will try this week.
-
Thanks for that Jo. It looks lovely. I will have to wait until my rhubarb supplier drops round with some but I will definitely make it then.
-
Sounds lovely Jo - does it actually have coffee in it??
-
No, no coffee. But I am sure it would be great with a cuppa. ;)

Making my second one today, sadly I left the other to cool in the kitchen yesterday and my very naughty Labradoodle Millie, decided to sample it, she could only reach one side but ate that. I had also misread the recipe and thought the topping went on after cooking, so maybe this time will get it right. Just a newbie Thermomix owner so making lots of mistakes!! :)
