I made these rhubarb muffins this past weekend, from this recipe that I first posted a couple of years ago. Who doesn’t love rhubarb muffins? They are the perfect way to use up a little leftover rhubarb. I considered using a different recipe, but this seems the simplest – no pre-cooking of rhubarb required. These do not disappoint. Recipe from . . . where else, Simply in Season
FOR PRINTABLE VERSION CLICK HERE: Rhubarb Muffins
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup yogurt (I used kefir)
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup oil
1 egg, beaten
2 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups rhubarb, diced
1/4 cup sugar
1 Tbs butter (melted)
1 tsp ground cinnamon (would you believe I was out of cinnamon? I substituted apple pie seasoning and it worked fine).
1 tsp flour
1. Combine flour through salt thoroughly.
2. In a separate bowl, combine yogurt through vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients just until moistened.
3. Stir in rhubarb. Fill greased muffin tins two-thirds full.
4. Combine sugar, butter, cinnamon, and flour together and sprinkle on top of muffins.
5. Bake at 375F in a preheated oven for 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on wire racks.
Servings: 12
The Verdict: AWESOME! These were good the first time I made them, and have not failed me since. They are not overly sweet, and the rhubarb is such a nice flavor – I especially liked it with the apple pie spice this time.

Perfect! I just finished chopping up rhubarb for a pie, and was wondering what to do with the extra rhubarb…wonder no more!!!
Yum. I have a very pretty rhubarb growing in the backyard as we speak. I call her ‘Barb. She’s a split off a 100+ year old original that was carried to the US from Finland by the lady I got it from’s grandmother. I’m kind of in love.
Now, to figure out how to convert your recipe to gluten free flour and add strawberries …

I’ve never actually had rhubarb before, but these muffins look delicious! Thank you for linking up for Sweet Thursday!
These were delicious! Wow, what a great muffin.
I love rhubard cake. This recipe looks delicious. It’s like melding a fab rhubard cake into a muffin recipe. That’s wonderful.
