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.

Mix together in large bowl:

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!
