Inverted cupcake with rhubarb and almonds

Fragrant cupcake for an evening tea party in a family circle. I found this recipe first on the Internet, and then in a culinary magazine. However, there he was presented as a pie. He needed a rectangular baking dish with a side of 22 cm. I just cracked this shape the day before and had to cook Rhubarb in a cupcake mold for it had to be cut into short stalks. Because of this, the top of the cupcake turned out not as beautiful as if longer stalks were used. Therefore, if you want to get a beautiful top, it is better to take a wider shape.
