Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sugar and cook until it dissolves and caramelizes slightly. Pour the caramel into the prepared cake pan.
  3. Wash and trim the rhubarb stalks, then cut them into 1-inch pieces. Arrange the rhubarb pieces on top of the caramel in the cake pan.
  4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, beat the eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until well combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Pour the batter over the rhubarb in the cake pan, spreading it evenly.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, invert the cake onto a serving plate and let it cool completely.
  8. Serve the rhubarb upside down cake as is or with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
