1/2

1

2
large eggs
2
cups
all purpose flour
1
tsp

1/2

1

Cinnamon Sugar Swirl:
1
tbsp

1/3

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
Prepare a 1 lb loaf pan (~ 9 x 5 x 3): either grease it, or line with parchment paper.
Combine the 1 tbsp cinnamon and 1/3 cup sugar, and set aside.
Using a mixer cream the butter and sugar together until smooth.
Add the eggs and mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a separate measuring cup stir together the buttermilk and vanilla.
Add the flour mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, to the butter mixture. Combine.
Stir in the chopped strawberries and rhubarb.
Add 1/2 of the batter to the loaf pan, then sprinkle on 1/2 of the cinnamon/sugar mix. Then using a fork, stir it a little into the batter.
Add the rest of the batter and sprinkle on the rest of the cinnamon/sugar mix. Stir again, just a little.
Bake for ~ 60 - 75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
