INGREDIENTS
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt, separated
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 cups chopped rhubarb
For the topping
- 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
INSTRUCTIONS
- Sprinkle 1 tsp of salt over the chopped rhubarb and mix to combine. Pour the rhubarb into a colander fitted over a bowl to catch the liquid. Allow the rhubarb to macerate until about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of liquid accumulates, 45-60 minutes. Once the rhubarb has macerated, discard the liquid and make the cake.
- Butter two 8.5 x 4.5 loaf pans and set them aside. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, combine the butter, white granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Using a whisk or a mixer, beat the mixture until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Add one egg and mix to incorporate. Repeat with the second egg and vanilla extract.
- To the wet ingredients, add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and remaining salt. Whisk to combine and slowly add the buttermilk while folding. Once the buttermilk is added, add the prepared rhubarb and fold until it is just mixed in. Pour the batter into the two prepared loaf pans and spread the top of each one to an even layer.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the white granulated sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle the mixture evenly over the two cakes.
- Bake at 350°F for 45-55 minutes until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Once baked, remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool for 20 minutes before slicing.
