Rhubarb Cake !

[ranger]

My husband always made me a cake on my birthday, but he's not a cook. Thank God for Betty Crocker! But, this year, it had to be gluten-free. I tried to find a gluten-free mix but no way am I going to pay 6.00 for a box of cake mix. So, a new tradition must start. gluten-free cakes are to hard for him to make, but I remembered an easy cake that my Grndma used to make and I love. I tweaked her recipe a little and it turned out great. And it's so easy to make that even he can make it next year. Don't have time right now, but if anyone wants the recipe for rhubarb cake, let me know.

Add 2 C sliced rhubarb ( about 1/4 inch slice). Pour into greased and floured 9 by 13 inch pan. Sprinkle top with cinnomon sugar (1/2 C sugar and 2 tsp cinn). Bake at 350 about 40 min or till done. gluten-free flour mix- 3 C rice flour, 1C potato starch flour, and 1/2 C tapioca starch. Sorry about the format of this recipe. I just realized that I don't know how to make a list on this thing! My typing skills are bad, which is why I don't post often. by by

I've converted it to a usable recipe (for my own benefit but thought I'd share). Let me know if I have transcribed any of it incorrectly.

I made this cake last night and it was delicious!! Good enough to serve to guests who are not gluten-free. My 15 year old ate 3 pieces and she usually snubs her nose at anything gluten-free.

Thanks for the recipe- it is a keeper!

PS I used Bette's Gourmet Featherlite Rice Flour Blend which I keep in our flour canister so it came together quickly with minimal measuring.
