Ingredients
Muffins:
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups small diced rhubarb
- 1 ¼ cups lightly packed brown sugar
- ½ cup coconut oil melted, or vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup buttermilk
Streusel:
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil softened
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup lightly packed brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line two 12-cup muffin tins with liners or grease the cups with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Toss in the chopped rhubarb and stir to coat.
- In a medium bowl or large liquid measuring cup, whisk together the brown sugar, oil, egg, vanilla and buttermilk until smooth.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir just until combined. Don't overmix!
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
- In a small bowl, stir together the streusel ingredients with a fork until crumbly and combined. Sprinkle a little bit (about a teaspoon or so) of the streusel on top of each muffin.
- Bake for 16-20 minutes until the tops of the muffins spring back to the touch and/or a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Don't overbake or the muffins may be dry.
- Let the muffins cool for five or so minutes before removing them from the pan to cool completely on a wire rack. These muffins keep great covered at room temperature for several days.
