Rhubarb Muffins

Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings

Ingredients

• 2 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• teaspoon salt
• 1 cups brown sugar
• 1 cup buttermilk
• cup vegetable oil
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cups diced rhubarb
• cup chopped walnuts

Streusel Topping

• cup white sugar
• 1 tablespoon melted butter
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350F (175C). Grease two 12-cup muffin pans or line with paper cups.

Step 2: In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3: In a separate bowl, beat brown sugar, buttermilk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until smooth.

Step 4: Gradually pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix by hand just until combined.

Step 5: Gently fold in the diced rhubarb and chopped walnuts.

Step 6: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling them almost to the top.

Step 7: To make the streusel topping, stir together the white sugar, melted butter, and ground cinnamon in a small bowl.

Step 8: Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of the streusel topping on top of each muffin.

Step 9: Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the muffin tops spring back when lightly pressed.

Step 10: Allow the muffins to cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, either serve them warm or transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
