Vegan Rhubarb Muffins

Vegan Rhubarb Muffins are a light, tender muffins topped with a delicious crumb topping. #vegan #muffins #rhubarb
I love baking all different types of desserts but if I had to pick one of my favorite things to bake it would definitely have to be muffins. Muffins are so easy to make and they make the perfect portable treat. These Vegan Rhubarb Muffins are a light, tender muffin bursting with slices of rhubarb.

I have been taking full of advantage of rhubarb this season. So far I have shared recipes for Strawberry Rhubarb Sangria, Rhubarb Butter, Strawberry Salad with Rhubarb Dressing,  Rhubarb Crumb Bars, and finally Vegan Rhubarb Muffins. I guess you could say that I went a little overboard with the rhubarb recipes and sadly I think that this will probably be my last rhubarb recipe for awhile. It’s time to focus on all the other amazing seasonal produce that is now at my local farmer’s market this month.

What makes these muffins a little extra special is the topping. After the muffin batter gets scooped into the lined muffin pan, a cinnamon sugar mixture tops each muffin. The sugar mixture adds a little extra something special to these muffins.

If your a big muffin fan like me, I hope that you give these muffins a try. Take advantage of rhubarb while it is still in season! Serve these Vegan Rhubarb Muffins for breakfast, brunch, or an afternoon sweet treat! I like to have a glass of almond milk or a cup of coffee along side my muffins.
