Tips

To achieve a moist and flavorful bread, make sure to use fresh oranges and rhubarb. If the rhubarb is too sour, you can add a bit more sugar to the batter.
Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough and dense bread.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
To prevent the bread from sticking to the loaf pan, grease and flour the pan before pouring in the batter.
Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time may vary depending on the size of your loaf pan.
