STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB MUFFINS



Strawberry-Rhubarb Muffins image

While rhubarb works wonderfully in baked goods, baking strawberries into scones or muffins can be a little bit more of a challenge. Though delightfully sweet and fragrant when fresh, baked strawberries have a tendency to become watery and bland. This recipe solves that problem by macerating the diced rhubarb and strawberries with sugar before folding them into the muffin batter. Doing so not only draws out excess moisture from the strawberries, but also gets a head start on breaking down the fibrous rhubarb. This recipe calls for an ample amount of sugar, which balances the tartness of the rhubarb and helps create wonderfully browned and chewy muffin tops. Finally, the cornmeal in this recipe adds great texture and gives the muffins a rustic finish. Opt for medium-grind or stone-ground cornmeal, if you can find it, but fine cornmeal works well, too.

Time 40m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 16

Nonstick cooking spray (optional)
1 cup small-diced fresh strawberries (about 6 ounces/170 grams)
1 cup small-diced fresh rhubarb (about 4 ounces/113 grams)
1 1/4 cups/250 grams granulated sugar
8 tablespoons/113 grams unsalted butter (1 stick), melted and slightly cooled
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup/227 grams sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Zest of 1 lemon
1 1/2 cups/192 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 cup/60 grams medium-grind or fine cornmeal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon Demerara or turbinado sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees and line a standard muffin tin with paper liners. (If not using a nonstick pan, spray the exposed metal with nonstick cooking spray.)
  • Combine the strawberries and rhubarb in a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon sugar; toss and set aside. Place the rest of the sugar (1 cup plus 3 tablespoons), along with the melted butter and eggs, in a large bowl. Whisk vigorously for about 30 seconds, until the yolks are pale and the mixture is smooth and glossy. Add the sour cream, vanilla and lemon zest, and whisk just until smooth.
  • In another medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, baking soda and cinnamon. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. (Be careful not to overmix.)
  • Transfer the fruit mixture to a strainer set over a bowl or the sink. Toss with a spoon, allowing any excess liquid to drain. (The amount will vary depending on the ripeness of the berries.) Discard the liquid and add the fruit to the batter, folding it in until just combined.
  • Using an ice cream scoop or large spoon, divide the batter among the 12 muffin cups. (The cups will be very full and slightly heaping.) Sprinkle the tops with the Demerara sugar and bake for 18 to 23 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean and the muffins spring back when lightly pressed.
  • Let the muffins cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then carefully transfer them to a rack to cool completely. The muffin tops may spread into each other slightly as they bake; simply cut the tops apart with a paring knife when the muffins come out of the oven and immediately run the knife very gently under the edges of the muffin tops to release them from the pan, being careful not to separate them from the bottoms.

STRAWBERRY RHUBARB CAKE/MUFFINS RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Strawberry Rhubarb Cake/Muffins Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by jads8627

Number Of Ingredients 20

FILLING:
3 cups sliced rhubarb, (1 inch pieces) fresh or frozen
2 pints fresh strawberries, mashed
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
CAKE:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter or margarine, cut in small pieces
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
TOPPING:
1/4 cup butter or margarine
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan combine rhubarb, strawberries and lemon juice. Cover and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Combine sugar and cornstarch; stir into strawberry rhubarb mixture. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened; remove from heat. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in butter with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, beat together buttermilk, eggs and vanilla; stir into crumb mixture. Spread half of the batter evenly into a greased 9x13x2-inch baking dish. Carefully spread filling over the batter. Drop remaining batter evenly over filling with a tablespoon. TOPPING: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Remove saucepan from heat; stir in flour and sugar until mixture is crumbly then sprinkle over batter. Lay foil on lower rack to catch any juicy fruit spillovers. Bake at 350°F for about 45 minutes, or until cake is done. Cool cake in pan on rack. Cut rhubarb coffee cake into squares to serve.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe strawberries and rhubarb. If you can't find fresh rhubarb, you can use frozen rhubarb, but be sure to thaw it and drain it well before using.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • To make sure the muffins are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin. If it comes out clean, the muffins are done.
  • These muffins are best served warm, but they can also be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These strawberry rhubarb muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. With their sweet and tangy flavor, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying treat, give these strawberry rhubarb muffins a try!
