Ingredients
- 1 cup sliced strawberries
- 1 cup sliced rhubarb
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (for topping)
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
- First thing’s first, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a bowl, mix together your sliced strawberries and rhubarb. Set aside while we get that batter ready.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Next, stir in the sour cream and vanilla extract until everything’s well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually add this dry mixture to your wet ingredients. Mix until just combined—don’t overdo it!
- Now, gently fold in those strawberries and rhubarb into the batter. Be careful not to break them up too much; you want those lovely pieces throughout the cake.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly. Then, sprinkle the brown sugar and walnuts on top for a sweet and crunchy finish.
- Pop that cake into the oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Once it’s baked to perfection, let it cool in the pan for a bit before transferring it to a wire rack. Don’t forget to share and enjoy this delightful treat with family and friends!
