Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 21/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 cup 2% plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream, light or regular)
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled slightly)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Rhubarb Filling:

  • 11/2 cups 1/4-inch-diced rhubarb
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper or foil baking cups.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to blend.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and lightly stir until just combined. Gently fold in the diced rhubarb.
  4. Fill Muffin Cups: Divide the batter among the muffin cups, allowing it to mound slightly above the tops.
  5. Add Topping: Combine sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle over each muffin, patting gently into the tops.
  6. Bake: Bake for 20-22 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Best served warm.

Notes

  • You can substitute sour cream for Greek yogurt for a richer flavor.
  • Feel free to add chopped nuts or a streusel topping for extra texture.
