Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large egg
- 1 3/4 cups brown sugar
- 2/3 cup canola oil
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1 1/2 cups rhubarb
- 1 cup pecans
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, brown sugar, canola oil, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking soda.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in the diced rhubarb and chopped pecans.
- In another bowl, prepare the topping by combining the flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the topping evenly over the batter.
