Yield 24 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 15

1½ cups brown sugar
¼ cup salad oil
1 egg
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk (or buttermilk powder + water; follow package directions)
1½ cups finely diced rhubarb
½ cup pecan pieces
2½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. salt
Topping:
1/3 cup sugar
1½ tsp. cinnamon
1 Tbsp. melted margarine

Steps:

  • 1) Preheat oven to 400F. Grease 24 medium-sized muffin cups. 2) Combine in large bowl: brown sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla. Beat until well mixed.

Tips:

  • Prep your rhubarb properly: Trim the ends and remove any leaves. Cut the rhubarb into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Use buttermilk for a tender crumb: Buttermilk adds moisture and tenderness to the muffins. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups to the top: This will give you tall, domed muffins.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
  • Let the muffins cool before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the muffins to set.
