Tips:

  • Choose the right rhubarb. Look for firm, bright red stalks with minimal blemishes. Avoid stalks that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Prepare the rhubarb properly. Wash the rhubarb thoroughly and cut it into 1-inch pieces. If the rhubarb is particularly tart, you may want to add a little sugar to it before using it in the muffins.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups evenly. This will help ensure that the muffins bake evenly.
  • Bake the muffins at the right temperature. The muffins should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool before serving. This will help them to hold their shape and prevent them from falling apart.
