Served alongside ice cream or whipped cream, this dessert is a keeper! One thing to note, it doesn't keep well. Although, still delicious, it was dry within a day or two of baking.
Old Fashioned Rhubarb Pudding Cake Recipe
Ingredients- 2 cups chopped rhubarb
- 1 3/4 cup sugar, divided
- 3 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 cup sifted flour
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2/3 cup boiling water
Cover the bottom of an 8 or 9 inch square pan with fruit. (I prefer an 8 inch or 9 inch square glass baking dish. You could also use a deep dish glass pie plate.)
Mix 3/4 cup sugar, butter, baking powder, salt, extracts, milk and flour together (add a little more milk if it is too thick to pour); pour over fruit. Mix remaining sugar and cornstarch; sprinkle over mixture in pan. Pour boiling water over the top. ( I know this sounds strange, but trust me, it works to create a pudding around the rhubarb in the bottom of the pan.)
Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes. Yield: 9 servings.
Always nice to have another rhubarb recipe in the box! Happy Memorial Day:@)
