Rhubarb Coffee Cake

Prepare a 9x 13 inch pan for baking.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees farhenheit.

Cream together 1-1/2 cups of sugar (I use half sugar, half Splenda or Whey Low)
with ½ cup of butter or margarine.
Add one egg.
Sift together 2 cups of flour (I use whole wheat),
½ teaspoon of salt,
1 teaspoon of baking soda.

Mix wet and dry ingredients alternately with
1 cup of sour cream or plain yogurt.
Add 2 cups of diced rhubarb pieces and place batter in pan.
If you don't have any rhubarb, you can use peaches or apples or pears, or other fresh fruit.

Topping:
½ cup of brown or white sugar,
½ cup of chopped nuts,
1 tablespoon of melted butter,
1 teaspoon of cinnamon.
Mix together and sprinkle over the batter

Bake for 45-50 minutes………………..Enjoy!
