Ingredients
Muffins
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 1 & 1/2 cups fresh or frozen rhubarb diced
Streusel Topping
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons cold butter
Filling
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 egg about 2 tablsepoons beaten
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line muffin pan with baking cups or grease thoroughly.
- Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, use the same whisk to combine milk, oil, and egg. Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients, and combine with a wooden spoon only until moistened. The mixture should be lumpy.
- In a small mixing bowl combine flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in butter using 2 forks or pastry cutter. Keep going until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Set streusel topping aside.
- To prepare filling, use an electric or stand mixer to beat together cream cheese, sugar, half an egg, and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Set filling aside.
- Spoon one tablespoon of muffin mixture into each cup. Top with half of the rhubarb, and then a tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture. Spoon remaining muffin mixture into each cup, top with remaining rhubarb. Use a teaspoon to distribute the streusel topping on each muffin. Bake for 17-20 minutes. Let cool in pan for 5 minutes and serve warm.
