This Gluten-Free & Vegan Norwegian Rhubarb Cake is deliciously balanced between tart and sweet. The sweet almond tones are surprisingly complementary to the tartness of the rhubarb making this a well-rounded rhubarb cake. Serves as a delicious birthday cake, a delicious dessert option for any gathering or simply as a coffee cake to have around the house for a delicious treat. Lower in sugar than the average cake and with the high-protein almond flour, it also makes this a great keto dessert for those who are carb conscious.

I must confess that rhubarb is one of those things that gets me a little nostalgic about my grandma’s baking. She would often make rhubarb pies, crisp, or jam that was freshly picked from her garden, which was always full of organic fruits and vegetables. Memories of picking fruits and vegetables till our shirts were brimming but barely making it back without eating ¾ of what we’ve picked.

does the fruit need to be rhubarb? Will peaches and/or/blueberries work too?

  It would be scrumptious with any fruit. Rhubarb, however, is very tart and tangy, which peaches and blueberries are not. Rhubarb has a lot of texture and fiber, again lacking in blueberries and peaches. There probably is another more available fruit you could substitute though that has a strong texture and tartness similar to rhubarb. But again, it would taste great with any fruit that you like, I'm certain.
