Recipe's preparation

Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease and line base and sides of a slice tin (20 x 30 cm) with baking paper and set aside.

Place butter into mixing bowl and melt 2 min/100°C/speed 2. Transfer into a bowl and set aside.

Insert butterfly whisk. Place eggs and 150 g of the icing sugar into mixing bowl and mix 2 min/speed 4. Meanwhile, cut rhubarb into pieces (2-3 cm). Transfer rhubarb into a separate bowl. Add remaining 1 tablespoon icing sugar and toss to coat. Set aside.

Add reserved melted butter to mixing bowl and mix 3 sec/speed 4. Remove butterfly whisk.

Add flour, baking powder, vanilla, milk and salt and mix 5 sec/speed 4. Transfer batter into prepared tin and smooth with spatula. Top evenly with reserved rhubarb, sprinkle with raw sugar and bake for 20-22 minutes (180°C), until lightly browned and a wooden skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Cool in tin for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Dust cake with extra icing sugar and serve warm with whipped cream (optional).

Tip

You can replace the rhubarb with seasonal stone fruit or fresh berries in this recipe, however cooking times may vary.

To make this recipe gluten free, replace the flour and baking powder with gluten free varieties.

Thermomix Model

Recipe is created for
TM 5

If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
