Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter, cold
• 1 Egg
• ¹⁄₂ cup Milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Strawberries, sliced
• 1 cup Rhubarb, diced
• ¹⁄₂ cup Brown sugar
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Butter, melted

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
4. Spread half of the batter into the prepared cake pan. Top with half of the sliced strawberries and rhubarb, then sprinkle with half of the brown sugar and ground cinnamon.
5. Spoon the remaining batter over the fruit and sprinkle with the remaining strawberries, rhubarb, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
6. In a small bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour and melted butter until crumbly. Sprinkle the crumb topping over the cake.
7. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Serve the strawberry rhubarb coffee cake warm or at room temperature.
