  • Prepare the rhubarb properly: Wash the rhubarb stalks thoroughly and remove any leaves. Cut the stalks into small pieces, about 1/2-inch thick.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined. A few lumps are okay.
  • Bake the muffins at the right temperature: The ideal oven temperature for baking rhubarb muffins is 375°F (190°C). This will help ensure that the muffins cook evenly and don't dry out.
  • Let the muffins cool before serving: Allow the muffins to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will help them set and make them easier to handle.
