Ingredients
For the muffin mix
- 175g caster sugar
- 175g rhubarb, halved lengthways then diced
- 2 tbsp sunflower oil
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 125ml buttermilk
- 200g plain flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
For the crumble topping
- 50g light muscovado sugar
- 50g plain flour
- 25g porridge oats
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 50g butter
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Gather 12 paper muffin cases and line them in a muffin tin. In a separate bowl, combine together the sugar and rhubarb and set aside. For the crumble topping, mix together the muscovado sugar, flour, oats and cinnamon, and use your fingertips to rub the butter into the mix until it's slightly clumpy.
- Step 2: Blend together the oil, egg, vanilla and buttermilk with the rhubarb, which may be a bit wet. Incorporate the flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda, stirring until everything is well combined.
- Step 3: Gently fill the muffin tins with the batter and top each one with a generous amount of the crumble mixture. Bake for 15-18 minutes until they are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the centre of one comes out clean. Allow to cool on a wire rack.
