RHUBARB STREUSEL BREAD

Bread Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup orange juice
2 eggs
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 ½ cups (1/4-inch) sliced fresh rhubarb

Streusel Ingredients:
2 Tbs. sugar
2 Tbs. packed brown sugar
1 Tbs. all purpose flour
1 Tbs. melted butter
1 ½ tsp cinnamon

Combine sugar and butter in large bowl- beat until creamy. Add orange juice and eggs & continue to beat on low until just mixed (mixture will look slightly curdled). Stir in flour, baking powder, soda and salt by hand just until moistened. Gently stir in rhubarb (batter will be thick). Reserve 1 ½ cups batter. Pour remaining batter into greased & floured 8x4 loaf pan.

Combine all streusel ingredients in small bowl; stir until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle half of streusel over batter in pan; gently press into the batter. Spread reserved batter into pan; top with remaining streusel (press into batter).

Bake at 350 degrees, 65 to 70 minutes. A great bake ahead-bread as flavor increases with time.
