Cinnamon Rhubarb Muffins

Rhubarb may be a vegetable, but it's fantastic in jams and desserts, like these cinnamon-sugary muffins. Buttermilk helps them bake with a light texture, yet rich taste, while walnuts make a delightfully surprising crunch. Best of all, you can bake these muffins anytime, as, although rhubarb peak season is summer, you can easily find it all year round.
