Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
- 0.75 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups chopped fresh rhubarb
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (for crumb topping)
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (for crumb topping)
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for crumb topping)
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter (cold, cut into small cubes for crumb topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt.
In a separate bowl, combine 0.5 cup of melted butter, 0.75 cup of milk, 1 large egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter will be thick.
Fold in 1.5 cups of chopped fresh rhubarb until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
To make the crumb topping, combine 0.5 cup of brown sugar, 0.5 cup of all-purpose flour, and 0.5 teaspoon of ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Add 0.25 cup of cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the muffin batter in each cup.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
