I got some fresh rhubarb at the market the other day and made a platz...it is a Mennonite recipe.
$2.95 pound.

I have enough left over to make a rhubarb-buttermilk tea cake that I am going to try tonight. It does look very good.

1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 egg
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups chopped rhubarb
1/2 cup chopped pecans
for glaze
1 cup sifted icing sugar
4-5 tsp lemon juice...............think I will skip this

Preheat oven 350
spray with oil or use parchment paper 8 x 4 loaf pan

stir flour with baking soad & salt in medium bowl. Wish egg with brown sugar, buttermilk, oil & vanilla
in large bowl, then stir in flour mixture. Add rhubarb & pecans and stir just until combined. Scrape batter into pan.

bake 70-75 min and cake tester comes out clean
cool in pan for 10 min.
at this time mis the glaze if using and drizzle over warm loaf.

Enjoy...I am off to the kitchen to make it food smiley 016

Buttermilk tea cake?

I love buttermilk recipes. It gives a cake a bit of tang.

I am going to try it out and give most of it away because I will be tempted to eat it all.

Sounds wonderful agate. I love anything with rhubarb!

Am on a no/low fat diet these days so I need a sub for veg oil. Hmm. Wonder if tofu might work? :-)

Enjoy!
