About this recipe

Rhubarb cake, a classic that always reminds me of my childhood. My grandma had a huge rhubarb bush in the garden, and in the spring there was nothing better than baking this cake with her. The slightly sour taste of the rhubarb, combined with the sweetness of the dough and the crunchy crumble, is simply unbeatable. The rhubarb itself is of course the star of this cake. It brings a pleasant acidity that harmonizes perfectly with the sweetness of the dough. Make sure to use fresh, firm rhubarb. The flour provides the structure of the dough, while the butter or margarine makes it juicy and smooth. The sugar contributes to the sweetness, and the eggs bind the ingredients and give the dough a loose consistency. The marzipan raw material is a little secret that gives the dough a fine almond note and additional juiciness. The lemon zest rounds off the taste and gives the cake a fresh note. The melting flakes in the crumble provide a nice crunch, and the milk combines the ingredients into a crumbly mass. When preparing in the Thermomix®, it is important to add the ingredients in the correct order. Start with the dry ingredients and then add the wet ones. Make sure that the butter or margarine is not too soft, otherwise the dough may become too sticky. If the dough is too firm, you can add some milk. The crumble should not be too moist, otherwise they will stick together when baking. If they are too dry, add some milk. For a vegetarian version, you can simply use butter instead of margarine. For a vegan version, you can replace the butter with vegan margarine and the eggs with applesauce or flaxseed flour. You can also add other spices, such as cinnamon, cardamom or ginger. Serve the rhubarb cake lukewarm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. It also goes perfectly with a cup of coffee or tea. The cake can be kept in the refrigerator for about 2-3 days. You can also freeze it. For preparation, you can prepare the dough and the crumble the day before and keep them in the refrigerator. However, you should only cut the rhubarb shortly before baking, as it will otherwise draw water.
