Step 1

Preheat oven to In a medium bowl, mix flour, cinnamon, and baking soda. Set aside.

Step 2

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix together the butter, sugar, and eggs on medium speed until everything is thoroughly combined.

Step 3

Add the dry ingredients and mix on low until just combined. Add vanilla and chopped fruit and mix until incorporated.

Step 4

Pour into two loaf pans and bake for about 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Sprinkle the tops with icing sugar if desired.

Step 5

Let cool for about 30 minutes, then remove the rhubarb bread from the pans and allow it to cool completely. Or eat it while it's still warm if you just can't wait. :)
