    Make Rhubarb Crumb Cake (Streuselkuchen)

    Published: May 28, 2018 · Modified: Sep 26, 2019 by Christina Dennis · This post may contain affiliate links · This blog generates income via ads · 2 Comments

    It's rhubarb season over here! Do you love how zippy and tangy rhubarb is as much as I do?! It just tastes SO good mixed with sweeter things like ice cream or a sugary crumb topping. The other week, I shared my favourite strawberry rhubarb pie recipe, and today I wanted to share with you my go-to rhubarb cake recipe: this delicious rhubarb crumb cake! If you're of German heritage like I am, you might also call it rhubarb streuselkuchen.

    You've GOT to try this rhubarb cake! It's delcious, moist, flavourful and so yummy!

    I really like this cake because it's such a great mix of sweet and sour flavours. I also like that it's made with yogurt for a lighter feel. The crumb topping makes my German roots so happy, too!

    We often buy a large pack of single-sized yogurt for our family. No one likes the vanilla flavoured ones (except for me), so I'll save them and use them later for this cake. I love how the vanilla flavouring in the yogurt tastes in this cake!

    This recipe is based off of this one from Karis' kitchen, which she altered from All Recipes.

    Ingredients
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda

    • 2 cups flour
    • 2 eggs, beaten

    Instructions
    1. Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9 x 13" casserole dish with butter and flour.
