Indulge in a slice of summer with this delightful Rhubarb and Raspberry Cake that's not only refreshing but also a feast for your senses!

1

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) while you prepare the batter.

2

In a large bowl, soften 150 grams of unsalted butter with 150 grams of sugar, mixing until it becomes light and fluffy.

3

Add 3 eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is well incorporated before adding the next. Then, blend in 5 milliliters of vanilla extract.

4

In another bowl, combine 250 grams of all-purpose flour, 10 grams of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt.

5

Gradually incorporate the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.

6

Prepare your rhubarb by trimming it and cutting it into small pieces. Gently fold in 400 grams of rhubarb and 200 grams of raspberries into the cake batter.

7

Grease and line a baking pan with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

8

Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

9

Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

10

Serve at room temperature, possibly with a dusting of powdered sugar or a dollop of whipped cream.

• Replace raspberries with strawberries for a different berry flavor.

• Ensure your butter is at room temperature for easy creaming.
• Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert.
