Rhubarb Crisp Muffins

  4.6 – 34 reviews  • Whole Wheat Muffin Recipes

These roasted nuts have the same flavor as the ones at the fair. There are many pecan trees in my ex-mother-in-law’s Southern home. Every Christmas, she sends me packages of pecans that have been shelled. At fairs, large roasters are used, but they produce excellent results as well.

Moist and delicious. Added walnuts to the recipe.
Christina Chung
I’ve made this on many occasions and every time, they ask for more. Love the simplicity of the recipe and the moistness the yogurt adds to the muffin.
Christine James
Such a great muffin recipe! The only change I made was to use a gluten free flour and oatmeal combination in the muffin in replace of the regular flours it called for. Used frozen rhubarb which worked perfectly. So delicious!!
Heather Branch
Yummy. I replaced the oil with applesauce and used gre
Michael Neal
A tasty, tender, cake textured muffin. I like that the topping recipe didn’t make too much, though some folks might want more. I think I would add some flour to the topping next time; part of mine melted off the muffins and onto the floor of my oven.
Amber Wolf
I used 2 cups of rhubarb, switched the vanilla yogurt for lemon. As directed, I put 1 tablespoon of the crumble on top of each muffin, had to make more crumble. Next time I make this, I’ll just use 1/2 table spoon of crumble.
Jennifer Davis
It as a great way to use my rhubarb up. Like the taste and texture. I did have trouble keeping the topping on as it wanted to flake off while eating them. Will make them again.
Rachel Morales
My family loved these muffins & another batch is in the oven. The only thing I did differently was not having whole wheat flour, I just used all purpose flour. Delicious!
Megan Green
we loved these muffins soft with with the perfect amount of sweet. The recipe says a tablespoon of topping each and there was not enough. I ended up having to make another round to be able to cover the tops. will definitely makes again soon.
William Lee
I love these just as they are. The slightly tart flavor the rhubarb give these sweet muffins is wonderful. Quick and easy when you have an abundance of rhubarb. I’ve made them with fresh and with frozen rhubarb with equal success.
Mary Barrett
I JUST TRIED IT TODAY AND I REALLY LIKED IT. YHANK YOU.
Ashley Wright
Doubled the rhubarb, delicious!
Ruben Matthews
Scrumptious, I did add sliced almonds to the topic and it was absolutely wonderful!
Kimberly Tran
Very tasty. Ate 3 out of the oven. It’s going into the favorites list.
Andrew Turner
Very good, just the right amount of sweet and tart. I used 2 cups of rhubarb. The additional rhubarb did not make muffins watery. Moist and delicious. Definitely will make again.
Stacy Francis
I took the muffins to work and they were devoured within minutes. Everyone loved them. The recipe is perfect the way it is – no changes needed.
Heather Barnett
Love that this recipe has whole wheat flour and yogurt, to add a little protein to the breakfast sweet. I put a sprinkling of sugar in the raw instead of the crumble topping and they were great!
Robert Hernandez
Just ok. (Not attractive either)
Joseph Lee
Delicious! Taking a queue from other reviews to cut fat and calories and use up more of my prolific rhubarb, I used 2 c. rhubarb, plain greek yogurt + 1 tsp vanilla, instead of vanilla yogurt and substituted 1/2c applesauce for the oil. The combo made 12 perfectly sized muffins that were moist, perfectly tart with that nice crunch from the topping (w/double the oats!). Next time I’ll try substituting a flax meal for some of the white flour and boost the nutrition even more. These are a keeper!
Mary Dixon
Yummy! Moist and wonderful tasting. I did as others suggested and increased the amount of rhubarb to 1.5 cups as I LOVE rhubarb. Even though I did this, I still only ended up with 5 muffins. Not sure what size of itty bitty muffin tins everyone else is using to get 12 muffins. 🙂
Jody Hernandez
Muffins were moist and yummy! Added applesauce instead of oil (used 1/2 cup). This recipe is a keeper!
