- In a small bowl, toss the diced rhubarb with cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar; set aside.
- Cream together the softened butter and 150g granulated sugar until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Alternate adding the dry ingredients and the sour cream into the butter mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Gently fold the coated rhubarb into the batter using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
