At my house, there's a sort of unspoken rule: you can't cook rhubarb without strawberries. Yes, but today I'm breaking the rule!

Serves: 4 people
INGRÉDIENTS- 2 tbsp. tbsp butter, melted
- 2 1/2 cups (250 g) rhubarb, about 5 stalks, washed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/3 cup (80 g) sugar
- 1 individual 175 g container plain yogurt (keep the container as a measuring tool)
- 2 containers flour
- 1 container almond flour
- 2 tbsp. 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 2/3 cup oil
- 2 large eggs
- Juice and zest of 1/2 lemon (optional)
- 1 cup (125 g) fresh raspberries
PRÉPARATION- Preheat oven to 375ºF. Place melted butter in the bottom of a deep 9-inch round cake pan.
- Spread rhubarb evenly in the bottom of the pan and sprinkle with sugar. Shake the pan to distribute the sugar evenly and bake for 8 minutes; the rhubarb should just begin to stew. Remove from oven and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine yogurt, flour, almond flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Add oil, eggs, lemon juice, and zest and mix until well blended. Scatter raspberries over rhubarb, then cover with batter.
- Bake at 375°F for 30 to 45 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a knife into the center of the cake: it should come out clean and dry. Let the cake cool for 30 minutes, then run a knife around the edge of the cake to loosen it from the pan and gently turn out onto a serving plate. Serve warm or at room temperature.
