Ingredients

Scale

For the Muffins:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup buttermilk (or milk + 1 tsp lemon juice)
  • 1 ½ cups chopped rhubarb

For the Streusel Topping:

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup cold unsalted butter (cubed)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and buttermilk until combined.
  3. Pour wet ingredients into dry and mix gently until just combined. Fold in chopped rhubarb.
  4. Divide batter evenly among the muffin cups (about ¾ full).
  5. In a small bowl, use a fork or pastry cutter to combine streusel topping ingredients until crumbly. Sprinkle generously over each muffin.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Notes

  • These muffins are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
