Description

This rhubarb muffin recipe is easy to make with fresh or frozen rhubarb for a moist and tender treat with a sweet-tart flavor in every bite!

Ingredients

1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 egg
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup diced rhubarb
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 cup crushed sliced almonds
2 teaspoons melted butter

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin, or line with paper liners.
2 Stir yogurt, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, oil, and egg together in a medium bowl. Stir flour, 3/4 cup of brown sugar, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Pour butter mixture into flour mixture; mix until just blended. Fold in rhubarb. Spoon into the prepared muffin tin, filling cups at least 2/3 full.
3 Stir 1/4 cup of brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, almonds, and 2 teaspoons of melted butter together in a small bowl. Spoon on top of each muffin, and press down lightly.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until the tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 25 minutes. Cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before removing.
