  1. Excellent rhubarb bread! The spices were just right; not overpowering. Even people who think they don't like rhubarb would like this bread. Considering the amount of rhubarb in it, it really isn't tart at all. Really yummy! Thanks PaulaT.
     
  2. Another yummy way to use up the huge crop of rhubarb that graces my backyard every spring!! I thought it might be too "spicy", but I was wrong - this is perfect! Thanks for sharing!
     
  3. I really think I may have baked too long as it was very dry. I would bake for only 45 minutes if I were to do again. Taste is pleasant....a nice slice with cream cheese hit the spot.
     
  4. Very pleasant loaf. The other reviews have said it all. It's moist, rich-tasting because of the spices, dark in colour. Another keeper!
     
  5. Love this bread. The rhubarb makes this so good!

Tweaks

  1. I found some frozen rhubarb in the grocery store so I thought it would be fun to try this bread.I've never tried rhubard before so I wasn't sure what to expect.I thought the bread had a really great flavor and it turned out very moist.I even subbed half the oil for applesauce.I just didn't think it was quite sweet enough.Next time I think I'll add a brown sugar topping to make it a little sweeter and also omit the nuts.
