    Wonderful muffins. I did however made some changes. Added 1 tsp of cinnamon to the batter, & 1 tsp of cinnamon to the topping. Substituted the walnuts with almonds, and used whole wheat flour rather than the white sugar. The muffins are light and it is hard to stop at one. - 6/6/10

    This is a wonderful recipe! Very easy, and delicious! I've been wondering what to do with my rhubarb (prolific plant) - this will certainly help use it up! - 5/30/09

    Really good muffins. I used white, whole-wheat flour, and reduced the oil to 1/4c. I upped the milk and rhubarb to make up for the liquid. I think they tasted wonderful, and the changes I made boost the nutrients a little, too. - 6/14/12

    These were superb. I cut the sugar in 1/2 and subbed artificial sweetener. I added 1 t. cinnamon to the batter and also to the topping. I used unsweetened almond milk to cut calories even further since it's only 40 cals/cup. I also used 1/2 the amt. of oil and mostly whole wheat flour. - 6/30/14

    Love this recipe. I wonder if there's an error in the calorie count though. It seemed high and when I checked the nutritional breakdown I saw the oil listed twice. I hope this is a mistake and the calorie count is much lower in fact. - 4/25/12

    I would probably have rated these muffins incredible if I could have used regular flour. I made them with Bob's Red Mill all purpose gluten free flour so my husband could eat them. He loved them. - 7/7/11

    This is one delicious muffin! I did make some changes to decrease the calories and fat. I exchanged all of the oil for pureed pinto beans (you can't tell the difference in the taste!) and exchanged the milk with almond breeze milk. - 5/20/11
