Tasty Tuesday

20 06 2012

In an effort to celebrate the reason behind 3 Billy Goats Bluff, we will begin to celebrate the seasonal foods we enjoy. Our little business began as an outlet for high-quality, naturally grown meat goats. We are now gearing up to have farm fresh, chemical free produce next season.

Thanks in advance to an old friend, Annette, for this recipe for tasty rhubarb muffins. Those are moist, dense and super delicious with a fantastic balance between the tangy rhubarb and the brown sugar sweetness.

Combine well:
1.5 cups brown sugar
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg, beaten
1 cup sour milk
1 tsp. soda
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla

Then add:
2.5 cups flour
1.5 cups chopped rhubarb

Fill muffin cups 2/3 full. This is too moist and dense to dome up or make fluffy muffin tops. Combine 1/3 cup white sugar and 1 Tbsp. melted butter. Sprinkle sugar/butter mixture over muffin batter in cups. Bake at 350 F for 20-25 minutes. Makes 24-30 muffins. Enjoy!
