  Rhubarb Cake

  This is a classic German Rhabarberkuchen: a tender, buttery vanilla sponge (Rührteig) baked with a thick layer of tart rhubarb pressed into the top. The fruit keeps the crumb moist while its sharpness cuts the sweet batter, and because the pieces sit on the surface rather than folded in, they stay juicy and jewel-bright instead of sinking. It is the kind of unfussy spring cake you slice for afternoon coffee and finish the same day.

  Rhubarb Muffins

  Tender buttermilk muffins studded with pockets of tart, jammy rhubarb and finished with a crackly cinnamon-sugar top. The tang of the buttermilk plays up rhubarb's brightness, while brown sugar and oil keep the crumb moist for days. Tossing the diced rhubarb in a spoonful of flour keeps the fruit suspended in the batter instead of sinking, so every bite gets its share.
