These Rhubarb Muffins feature a delightful blend of flavors, combining tangy rhubarb with creamy Greek yogurt for a moist, tender treat. Ideal for breakfast or an afternoon snack, they’re straightforward to make and offer a wonderful homemade touch.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1¾ cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled, plus more for the rhubarb
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¾ cup whole milk Greek yogurt, or sour cream
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup cane sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups chopped rhubarb

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly oil or spray a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, brown sugar, cane sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, milk, and vanilla, whisking until smooth.
  4. In another medium bowl, toss the chopped rhubarb with ½ teaspoon flour to coat.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix. Gently fold in the rhubarb.
  6. Use a ⅓-cup measuring cup to evenly distribute the batter into the muffin cups.
  7. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the tops spring back and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For a sweeter muffin, add an extra tablespoon of brown sugar.
Ensure not to overmix the batter to keep the muffins light and fluffy.
Use fresh rhubarb for the best flavor; frozen rhubarb can be used but may require adjusting the flour.
