What You’ll Need
1/2 cup Heavy Cream
1 tsp Lemon Juice
1/2 cup Butter, Softened

How to Make Rhubarb Breakfast Cake
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 x 9 pan with non-stick spray.
Chop enough rhubarb to equal 2 cups.
In a small bowl stir together 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1 tsp lemon juice.
In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup softened butter and 1 cup sugar. Add in 1 egg and 1 1/2 tsp vanilla and beat together.
Measure 2 cups flour and remove 2 tbsp. Add it to the chopped rhubarb and toss to coat.
Pour remaining flour in a small bowl. Add 2 tsp baking powder and 1 tsp salt to the flour, mix well.
Add dry mixture to the wet. Then add the heavy cream. Mix until well combined. Then stir in chopped rhubarb.
