RHUBARB STICKY BUNS

Provided by pies and cakes and

Categories     Breads

Time 35m

Yield 12 sticky buns, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup cold butter (no subs)
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup chopped rhubarb (fresh or frozen, and thawed)
1/3 cup softened butter or 1/3 cup margarine
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg
1/2 cup cream

Steps:

  • In a bowl, cut butter into brown sugar till crumbly. Stir in rhubarb. Spoon mixture evenly into 12 WELL GREASED muffin cups (I have tried using cupcake papers, and it doesn't work!). Set aside.
  • In a mixer bowl, cream butter or margarine, and sugar. Beat in egg.
  • Combine dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture alternately with cream.
  • Spoon batter over rhubarb filling cups about 3/4 full.
  • Bake 350° for 15-20 minutes. Cool 5 minutes and invert onto serving tray. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • To make the buns ahead of time, prepare the dough and let it rise, then shape the buns. Place the buns on a baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, let the buns come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking.
  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can make the dough by hand. Just be sure to knead it for at least 10 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
  • To make the rhubarb filling, you can use fresh or frozen rhubarb. If you are using frozen rhubarb, be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • If you don't have any brown sugar, you can substitute granulated sugar. However, the brown sugar will give the buns a richer flavor.
  • Be sure to grease the baking dish before adding the buns. This will help prevent them from sticking.
  • Bake the buns until they are golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This should take about 30 minutes.
  • Let the buns cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Conclusion:

Rhubarb sticky buns are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. Whether you are serving them for breakfast, brunch, or dessert, they are sure to be a hit. With their sweet and tangy filling and gooey caramel sauce, these buns are irresistible. So next time you are looking for a special treat, give rhubarb sticky buns a try. You won't be disappointed!
