Рецепт Rhubarb Walnut Muffins
I love finding recipes for Rhubarb. Growing up, there was an abundance of it surrounding me as my family always had plants growing lots and lots of rhubarb. We bought some rhubarb to plant for ourselves now that we have our own home. Unfortunately I did have to buy the rhubarb I have on had right now, but next year I hope to have my own. I just can't deal the thought of spring without having what I want for rhubarb!
Imagine how delighted I was when the April/May issue of Allrecipes Magazine had several rhubarb recipes in it! I have made several of the rhubarb recipes in that issue and will be sharing them with you over the course of the next several days. Today's recipe is for Aunt Norma's Rhubarb Muffins. Well, I didn't totally follow Aunt Norma's recipe, but I bet you already knew that. ;)
The original recipe calls for more sugar than I used as well as a cinnamon sugar topping that I omitted. It also calls for buttermilk which I do not always readily have in my refrigerator. However, I always have almond milk and sour cream so I made my own creamy "buttermilk" by mixing 1/2 cup of sour cream, 1/2 cup of almond milk and 1/2 tablespoon of vinegar!
These muffins turned out amazing. Moist, slightly sweet with that rhubarb tang. They are so good that as a matter of fact, my dad, who is here visiting with my mom today, just walked past me as he came out of the kitchen and told me they were so good he couldn't stop eating them! If you have rhubarb available to you, I definitely suggest you give these muffins a try!
