Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups fresh rhubarb, chopped
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×9-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold the chopped rhubarb into the batter.
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the crumb topping. Cut in the cold butter with a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the top of the batter.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
- Allow the cake to cool slightly in the pan before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
