Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold the diced rhubarb into the batter until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
To prepare the streusel topping, combine the brown sugar, all-purpose flour, and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Add the melted butter and mix with a fork until the mixture becomes crumbly.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter in the loaf pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
