Week Twenty One

Two weeks to go until we head away for the best part of a month to cycle through, up and down the mountains of France and Italy. The wet week that has just been, has put a damper on our training regime and had us lugging our bikes around to our lounge for a spin class. Was a lot of fun but we are chomping at the bit to get out in the fresh air! And fresh it will be!
But that has absolutly nothing to do with this weeks cake idea. I noticed rhubarb in the vege section of our local New World, so rhubarb cake it is.
The baking recipe book had four rhubarb cakes on offer, one with custard, another with ginger. I opted for the plain Rhubarb cake and it is very moist and delicious. There is only 60gm of butter in this creation, low fat yoghurt, brown sugar and of course rhubarb providing the roughage!
We will try it tonight with a little yoghurt on the side.
This weeks cake keeps very well, so should you be out and about and find me at home, then come on in for a taste!

  1. Rhubarb is very popular here in the Midwest during spring and early summer. We eagerly await the rhubarb season--rhubarb custard dessert, rhubarb bars, rhubarb jam, rhubarb pie and our family favorite: rhubarb crisp! Happy eating!
