Ingredients

Scale

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup granulated sugar

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

2 large eggs

½ cup buttermilk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking soda

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

  3. In a separate large bowl, mix melted butter, sugar, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla until smooth.

  4. Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients until just combined. Fold in diced rhubarb.

  5. Pour the batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

  6. Bake for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
