Ingredients

  • Rolled oat flour – a great alternative to all-purpose flour. You can purchase oat flour here or simply make your own by blending rolled oats!
  • Baking powder – to help the muffins rise.
  • Flax seeds & chia seeds – for an extra nutritional boost!
  • Eggs – to help bind the ingredients and help the muffins rise.
  • Almond butter – gives these rhubarb muffins a delicious and creamy texture. We love this almond butter!
  • Banana & dates – to naturally sweeten and help bind everything together.
  • Vanilla & cinnamon – delicious natural sweeteners.
  • Rhubarb – we used fresh rhubarb in this recipe.
  • Coconut sugar – raw sugar or brown sugar also work great!

What Kind of Rhubarb Should I Use?

For this recipe, we used fresh rhubarb. However, frozen or dried rhubarb would work great, too!

This recipe is a variation of the Blueberry Bread recipe, so be sure to check that recipe out and the Pumpkin Muffins recipe for more of these delicious muffin and bread variations!
