Ingredients

  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
  • 5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 6 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup (218 g) vegetable oil
  • 1 pound strawberries, washed, diced (about 3 cups)
  • 1 pound rhubarb, washed, sliced (about 3 cups)

Topping

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • To a small bowl, add eggs and oil. Stir until well combined.
  • Add the eggs and oil mixture to the flour mixture, mixing until combined.
  • Fold in the strawberries and rhubarb.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.

Topping

  • In the last few minutes of baking the cake, heat the milk, butter, and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until the butter and sugar have fully dissolved.
  • Take the cake out of the oven and insert a skewer into the top, making between 25-30 spaced holes all the way to the bottom.
  • Pour the milk mixture over the cake, making sure it fills the holes and covers the top.
  • Let the cake cool completely.
  • Dust with confectioners's sugar before serving.
