It's rhubarb season and I'm so excited because of these rhubarb muffins, this rhubarb pie and this rhubarb jelly. I LOVE rhubarb! This recipe makes 6 large or 8 regular and they are even better the next day. If you do have any leftover they freeze well. I'm loving these tulip muffin liners, especially when you have a crumb or streusel topping. Keeps all the topping in place while they bake. I got them on Amazon, 200 for $19.99. I make a lot of muffins but 200 will last me awhile!
