Since we have TONS of rhubarb in our garden, I was happy to find this easy, delicious recipe! I increased the rhubarb to 1 1/2 cups & chopped it into fairly small pieces. The bottom (top???) didn't become real sticky because (a) I baked them in my silpat muffin pan OR (b) because I didn't put them into the oven until an hour after assembling. Some of the rhubarb stayed in the bottom with some of the juices - that was OK as I ate it with a spoon - LOL. When I make these again (and I definitely will), I'll time things better so I can still serve them warm ........... I'll also add some cinnamon to the batter. Thanx for posting!

These sticky buns are really good. I did change a few things. I used rhubarb AND strawberries and mixed them together with the brown sugar. I didn't use the butter in the crumble - didn't need it. I added 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp orange zest, and 1/4 cup orange juice to the batter. Orange goes amazingly well with rhubarb and strawberries. I also used plain Greek yogurt instead of cream. These sticky buns turned out EXCELLENT!

These are excellent. Very easy to make. I used very thin stalks of rhubarb I used a heaping cupful chopped 1/2 inch thick. I found the rhubarb mixture just the right sweetness for us. The batter baked up to a nice crumb texture. I used heavy cream. Mine baked in 18 minutes. Next time I will put a pan under the muffin pan to catch any overflow( just one did). Thanks for sharing this recipe, one I will be making again.

My muffin tins were unfortunately rusted, so I made it into sort of a cake instead. My modifications to fit a 13x9 cake pan: Double the recipe. Use 350 grams rhubarb in place of what the recipe calls for. Added 400 grams strawberries. 10 ounce of evaporated milk substituted for the cream (evaporated milk is a 1:1 sub for cream, I also added 2 ounces because I wanted to be sure it was moist), As per other suggestions, added: 1 tsp of cinnamon, 1 tsp of vanilla extract. You will have to double the baking time for this.

This recipe is fantastic - my family hasn't stopped talking about it! I added half a cup of strawberries to the topping, used cinnamon instead of nutmeg & skim milk instead of cream. These were fantastic warm, nice and gooey, but also great chilled on a hot day. I will be making these again, for a long time to come!
