Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine brown sugar, cinnamon, butter, and flour in a small bowl. Mix well and set topping aside.

Step 2

Place rhubarb into a small bowl and add 1 tablespoon flour. Mix well and set aside.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) and set aside.

Step 4

Cream sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add yogurt, eggs, and vanilla extract; blend until smooth. Add remaining flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; mix until flour has been incorporated. Fold in rhubarb. Pour batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle with topping.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Cool slightly in the pan. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool completely.
