Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Rhubarb Strawberry Coffee Cake.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C). Grab a 9x13-inch baking pan and give it a good greasing and flouring to ensure your cake comes out perfectly.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and eggs. Beat them together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Then, pour in the cold coffee and mix until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. This dry mixture will add structure and flavor to your cake.
Step 4
Now, gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Be careful not to overmix; just combine until you see no more dry flour. Next, stir in the chopped rhubarb and sliced strawberries, allowing their vibrant flavors to mingle with the batter.
Step 5
Pour the luscious batter into your prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. For a sweet finishing touch, sprinkle the top with brown sugar and, if you like, the chopped pecans for a delightful crunch.
Step 6
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 45 to 50 minutes. You'll know it's done when the cake is lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The aroma wafting through your kitchen will be irresistible!
Step 7
Once baked, let the cake cool slightly before slicing. Serve it warm or at room temperature, and enjoy a slice of this delightful coffee cake with a cup of your favorite brew.
