'RHUBY TUESDAY'S" Sour Cream Rhubarb Muffins

After testing many rhubarb muffin recipes over the past few years, this one wins - hands down!  It seems I have better results when baking anything that has sour cream or buttermilk as an ingredient.  I like how they add moisture and a delicate taste to baked goods.


I hope you'll give this quick and easy recipe a try.

2 Cups Flour
