Rhubread

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour two 8x4-in. loaf pans.
2. Toss rhubarb with 2 tablespoons sugar; let stand while preparing batter.
3. In a large bowl, beat oil, eggs, vanilla and remaining sugar until well blended. In another bowl, whisk flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and baking powder; gradually beat into oil mixture (batter will be thick). Stir in rhubarb mixture and, if desired, pecans.
4. Transfer to prepared pans. Bake 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool.
