Rhubarb Apple Cinnamon Muffins
I appreciate all of your rhubarb recipe suggestions. I now have tons of recipes to try. I wish I had ten plants. I decided to try rhubarb muffins next.
I loved these muffins. They are a new favorite. I made big ones and mini ones and they were both amazing. They were plenty moist due to the applesauce, oil, rhubarb, and apple. I loved the tart rhubarb flavor paired with sweet brown sugar and cinnamon. I am glad I added the cinnamon crunch topping, it really made these muffins marvelous!
So if you haven’t tried rhubarb yet, what are you waiting for? Try my strawberry rhubarb crumb cake or these magnificent muffins! You won’t be disappointed.

Mmmm, these two rhubarb recipes sound wonderful! (must try).
I love rhubarb, it’s an old family favorite. I can understand your obsession.
Great breakfast treat- the topping looks awesome. How are you feeling?
You are really rocking the rhubarb this week! I'm ready to head off for the gym & want a few of those to energize me before I go
Now that’s a new twist I’ve never seen rubarb paired with apples! Great thinking!
Great ideas with rhubarb! these muffins look great with all those spices. They look so moist. And fresh from your own garden! Cool!!
I wish I could taste some rhubarb.. must buy some soon! I’m not lucky enough to have a rhubarb plant. Even if we planted, the raccoons and bunnies would probably eat them all up. The muffins look delicious!
The rhubarb in your title certainly caught my attention. I love rhubarb. My mother would always have it in her garden and brings back childhood memories!!!! Love, Love, Love rhubarb any way it’s presented to me!!!
I still have not tasted rhubarb. What am I waiting for? You are so lucky to have it growing in your yard!
What a great combination – rhubarbs and apples! These sound really great!
I haven’t tired rhubarb with apple. Now I really want to plant some rhubarb!
These would be great for a weekend breakfast.
Three cheers for muffins!
The topping totally completes this muffin, looks delicious!
These look great I can’t wait to try it! I’m jealous you have a plant, I’m thinking we’ll have to plant some too because our local store doesn’t get very many shipments in.
All this rubarb talk is making me really want to try it! These muffins sound delicious.
Wow those muffins look and sound great I love rhubarb hubby is not convinced maybe this will do the trick.
Oh man, Maria, I wish I was in Utah so I could come over and experience all of this rhubarb greatness!
love this rhubarb kick!
keep them coming please!
Maria,
I saw your crumb cake yesterday……can you believe I had never tried rhubarb?
I should’ve tried your crumb cake, that will be next.
The rhubarb pudding cakes I made last night were fabulous!
These look wonderful! I’m going to have to track down some rhubarb. Or, I could just plant some. Nice recipe!
I do need to make some muffins soon! I love the rhubarb and apple cinnamon flavor. Yay for the rhubarb week!
My neighbor grew rhubarb when I was a kid and we loved it. These muffins look and sound really tasty.
Another must bake recipe from you two peas, love it. They look sooo good.
I could definitely use one of these for my breakfast this morning. They look perfect!
I’m so impressed that you’re able to come up with these gems yourself! THey looks absolutely divine!
What wonderful muffins! I love that combo!
Cheers,
Rosa
Those look awesome Maria! I still need to find some rhubarb and get trying some of the recipes you’ve been posting!
cinnamon crunch topping? that’s an awesome addition, obviously. forget strawberry-rhubarb. i want apple-rhubarb.
You’re on such a rhurbarb kick! I don’t love rhubarb but I think with apple cinnamon to balance the flavor these would be right up my alley. Yum!
Yum! They look delicious.
Oh my! Those look perfect!
I see nice looking rhubarbs at our local Whole foods and wonder what to do with it. this sounds delicious and hearty!
oh those muffins look so tasty! i have to find rhubarb!
I love that you spruced up the healthy muffin with a topping! Yummy toppings make everything better.
Nice recipe..sounds very yummy..
Grazie
Okay, I really need to find some rhubard and getting baking QUICK! These muffins look delish!
What a great looking muffin Maria! I love your apple and rhubarb combination and that you lightened them up a bit – yum!
I’m dying to try rhubarb now!
My rhubarb are ready to be picked but I also have a ton frozen from last year (not sure if I should still use them). I’d better get going on this year’s crop so thanks for these great recipes!
Since you made these muffins and you've got apples & spices…I can ignore the rhubarb and nibble away! lol
