Strawberry Rhubarb Coffee Cake
Since today is National Coffee Cake Day and I haven’t yet shared a coffee cake recipe on this blog, I decided to bake a delicious strawberry rhubarb coffee cake to celebrate! It may be a slim excuse, but really, no excuse is needed for something as easy and delicious as coffee cake! Although if you are looking for one, you’ve also got Mother’s Day, wedding and baby showers, graduations, and a host of other Springtime occurrences that can serve as reason enough to whip up a batch of this warm and satisfying cake. I have a deep and abiding love for strawberry rhubarb desserts. I have already shared some of my favorite strawberry rhubarb recipes with this strawberry rhubarb pie that is easily one of my top five favorite pies of all time, and these strawberry rhubarb crumb bars that are incredibly tasty as well. So it just made sense to me to use a strawberry rhubarb combination as a filling for a springtime coffee cake. Especially since the warmth of the cinnamon and brown sugar topping balances out the tart and tangy strawberry rhubarb layer in between the temptingly tasty cake. If you think of yourself as a cinnamon crumb coffee cake purist, I have a pretty strong suspicion that this fruity variation could change your mind.
