My Favourite Rhubarb Loaf Recipe

It’s that time of year! Rhubarb crumble, loaf, muffins, frozen rhubarb, stewed rhubarb, you know where this is going. Our rhubarb was the first plant I saw growing out of the snow this year and now it’s huge!

Since I’ve started harvesting our rhubarb I thought I would share my favourite rhubarb loaf recipe with you. I think it’s from my high school cooking class, but that was a long time ago, so I’m not 100% certain 🙂 Regardless, I hope you enjoy!

Feel free to also check out our post on Saskatoon Berries, you could substititate or add rhubarb to some of these recipes as well.

Ingredients & Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Mix together in large bowl:

1 1/2 cup brown sugar
2 1/2 cup flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda

Add 1 1/2 cups finely chopped rhubarb (I used 1 cup rhubarb and 1/2 cup strawberries).

In a separate bowl, mix together:

2/3 cup oil
1 egg
1 cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla

Add liquid ingredients to dry ingredients all at once. Mix until just moist. Place in 2 greased loaf pans and sprinkle with topping:

1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp melted butter

Bake for one hour. Enjoy!

What are your favourite things to make with rhubarb?

Years ago I made stepping stones from the rhubarb leaves, maybe if I get really motivated I’ll make some more and share them on the blog! Let me know if you think I should!
