Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 400°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper or foil baking cups. Make the muffin batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt and whisk to blend. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sour cream, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Lightly stir the sour cream mixture into the dry ingredients with a spatula until the batter just comes together; do not overmix. Gently stir in the diced rhubarb. The batter will be thick. Divide the batter among the muffin cups, using the back of a spoon or a small spatula to settle the batter into the cups. The batter should mound a bit higher than the tops of the cups. Make the topping: In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon and mix well. Sprinkle a generous 1/2 tsp. of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over each muffin. Bake the muffins until they're golden brown, spring back most of the way when gently pressed, and a pick inserted in the center comes out clean, 18 to 22 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes. Carefully lift the muffins out of the pan-if necessary, loosen them with the tip of a paring knife-and let them cool somewhat.

A delicious way to use fresh rhubarb! These muffins are moist with a sweet cinnamon buttery topping that works so well with the tartness of the rhubarb. I adapted this recipe from the original to make it vegan for my husband. I can't tell the difference between the two, they're both so tasty!

Before baking, the batter is sprinkled with a salty-sweet crumble, resulting in a hit of crunch with every bite.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- For the crumble topping: Add the brown sugar, flour, butter, cinnamon and salt to a medium bowl and use clean hands to mix the ingredients together until pea-size pieces form. Set aside.
- For the muffins: Spray a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a medium bowl and set aside.
- Beat the butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer (or using a stand mixer fitter with the paddle attachment) on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the flour in 3 parts, alternating with the milk in 2 parts, beginning and ending with the flour and beating until just incorporated. Fold in the rhubarb using a rubber spatula. Take care not to overmix the batter.
- Divide the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, leaving at least 1/8 inch of space at the top. Sprinkle on the crumble mixture, distributing it evenly.
- Bake until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out with just a few moist crumbs, 25 to 30 minutes. Le the muffins cool completely in the pan on a wire rack, about 30 minutes.
HEALTHY RHUBARB CINNAMON MUFFINS
I took a LOL recipe and made it healthier and cut out most of the fat and sugar. I only grow green rhubarb, and I assume they would look prettier with red. These were very moist and slightly tart. I like them very cinnamony; if you don't, cut the cinnamon in the batter in half.

Tips:
- Use fresh rhubarb: Fresh rhubarb stalks are the best choice for muffins. They should be firm and crisp, with no signs of wilting or bruising.
- Chop the rhubarb into small pieces: This will help to ensure that the rhubarb cooks evenly throughout the muffins.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough, dense muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a muffin pan with liners: Liners will help to prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan and will make cleanup easier.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
- Let the muffins cool before serving: This will allow the muffins to set and will make them easier to handle.
