Spring time means rhubarb season! This year my very own rhubarb plants are producing rhubarb stalks. I’m very excited to start baking with this vegetable!

This morning I ended up baking rhubarb mini loaves! This is the second recipe on rhubarb bread on this blog. I tried to decrease some of the calories with this one.

I just love the way fresh rhubarb looks so colorful!

Ingredients:
2/3 cup raw sugar
1/3 cup canola oil
2 TB milled flaxseed
1 tsp high quality cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1 Cardamon pod ground
1 cup fat free butter milk
1/4 cup egg substitute
2 1/2 cups of whole wheat pastry flour
1 1/2 cup chopped rhubarb ( frozen is okay just make sure to thaw it first)
1/3 cup slivered almonds
Cinnamon sugar optional
Cooking spray

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Set aside.

In a large bowl mix oil, flaxseed, and sugar with a whisk.

Add vanilla, egg, substitute and buttermilk.

In a separate bowl whisk together flour, cinnamon, Cardamon, and baking soda.

Pour the dry ingredients into the liquid batter.

Whisk together once combined fold in rhubarb.

Fold in almonds.

Fold until batter is fully incorporated.

Scoop 1 cup of batter into mini bread pans and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.

Bake for 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

Let cool in pan for 5 minutes and remove.

Enjoy!
