Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients ahead: Before starting the muffin batter, preheat the oven and prepare the muffin tin. This will help ensure that the muffins bake evenly and consistently.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough, dense muffins. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Use fresh rhubarb: Fresh rhubarb is essential for the best flavor and texture in these muffins. If you can't find fresh rhubarb, you can use frozen rhubarb that has been thawed and drained.
  • Don't skimp on the streusel topping: The streusel topping is what makes these muffins extra special. Be sure to use plenty of butter, sugar, and flour in the topping.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached: Overbaking the muffins will make them dry and crumbly.

Conclusion:

Rhubarb cheesecake muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. The muffins are moist and flavorful, with a creamy cheesecake filling and a crunchy streusel topping. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. Try this recipe for a delightful treat that is sure to impress your friends and family.
