  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1-1/2 to 2 cups finely diced rhubarb, 1/4-inch cuts

Method

  • In a bowl, combine the sugar and oil; blend in egg, vanilla and milk. Combine flour, salt, cinnamon and baking soda; add to moist ingredients. Stir in rhubarb and nuts. Transfer to 2 well-greased 8x4-in. loaf pans.
