Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a round cake pan.
-
In a saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add brown sugar and lemon zest, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Pour the mixture into the prepared cake pan.
-
Trim and cut the rhubarb stalks into 1-inch pieces. Arrange them in a single layer on top of the butter-sugar mixture.
-
In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a separate bowl, cream together the remaining butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture, alternating with milk. Stir in lemon juice.
-
Pour the batter over the rhubarb in the cake pan, spreading it evenly.
-
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, invert the cake onto a serving plate.
-
Serve the lemony rhubarb upside-down cake warm or at room temperature.
