Ingredients
  

Filling:

  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 3 cups diced fresh rhubarb

Cake:

  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 1/4 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 egg beaten

Instructions
 

Filling:

  • In a medium saucepan combine sugar and cornstarch. Stir in rhubarb.
  • Cook and stir over medium heat, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens. Remove from heat and cool.

Cake:

  • Combine milk and lemon juice. Set aside.
  • Combine flour and sugar. Cut in butter until mixture is crumbly ( a food processor is great for this). Remove 1/2 cup of this mixture and set it aside to use for topping.
  • To the remaining flour mixture add baking powder, baking soda, and walnuts.
  • Combine egg with milk mixture. Add to the dry ingredients and stir or process until just moistened.
  • Spread 2/3 of the batter over the bottom and part way up the sides of a greased 9 inch springform pan. Spoon the rhubarb filling over this. Drop the remaining batter by spoonfuls over the filling. Sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.
  • NOTE: 3/4 cup of buttermilk can be used in place of the milk. Omit lemon juice.
