  • Author: ushinzomr

Description

These rhubarb muffins are tender and fluffy, made with sour cream for added moisture and flavor. Perfect for breakfast or a snack!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/2 cups rhubarb, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with non-stick spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Mix in the sour cream until fully combined.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Gently fold in the chopped rhubarb.
  8. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  9. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  10. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For added flavor, consider sprinkling a little sugar on top of the muffins before baking.
  • These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
