Rhubarb Bread

Another recipe from my sister, Rita Clark. Would you believe that we both loved to cook? We got that from our mother who also loved to cook.

1 1/2 cups brown sugar--firmly packed
2/3 cup margarine
1 egg
1 cup sour milk or buttermilk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. baking soda
2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 cups diced rhubarb
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 Tbsp. melted margarine

Combine brown sugar and 2/3 cup margarine. Stir in the egg, milk and vanilla and mix well. Sift the baking soda and flour together and stir it into the margarine mix. Then stir in the rhubarb and walnuts. Pour into well-oiled loaf pans.
Combine the 1/2 cup white sugar, cinnamon, and melted margarine and sprinkle over the top. Bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for about 40 minutes or until done. Don't overbake. Let stand for 2 0r 3 minutes, then remove from pans and cool.
