Wow! This bread is delicious! I didn't even use the topping. I used frozen rhubarb during the winter. It was a great reminder of summer time. I was a little confused about the "hot cooked rhubarb" but I just put a little more than 1 cup in a pot of boiling water until soft, then I drained it. The batter seemed really runny so I eliminated the milk.
