Let's bake...Rhubarb crumble muffins!

Hey beauties,

It's half term! Yay, a whole week of revision, art exam stuff and homework...yay, i think? So today I decided to bake, (one of my favourite activities) and top of my list to bake were some rhubarb crumble muffins! Yummy!

So I thought I'd share the recipe (from a good food magazine at some point!) with you lovely people:

                                                                  You will need:

For the muffin mix-

175g caster sugar

175g rhubarb , halved lengthways then diced

2 tbsp sunflower oil

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

125ml buttermilk

200g plain flour

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

For the crumble topping-

50g light muscovado sugar

50g plain flour

25g porridge oats

1 tsp ground cinnamon

50g butter

                                                                  Lets get started!

1. Turn your oven on at  220c/200c/gas mark 7. Then put 12 muffin cases into a muffin tray!
2. Stir your rhubarb and sugar together, put this to one side for later.
3. You can now make your crumble topping! Add the sugar, flour, oats and cinnamon, then mix them together!
4. You can now add your butter, using your finger tips rub it with the dry ingredients until clumpy.
5. Put this to one side, and grab your sugary rhubarb (which may be a bit juicy, but that's fine!)
6. Add your oil, egg, buttermilk and vanilla to the rhubarb and mix it all together.
7. Then add your baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and flour. then stir well!
8.  Spoon your mixture into cases then scatter a thick layer of crumble mix (which you've put to one side) over the top and cook for 15-18 mins. (You'll know their cooked when they're golden brown and you can put a cocktail stick into them and it come out clean when removed.)
9. EAT!

I was really impressed with them as they taste brill (especially when warm!) and look great, i love rhubarb! I hope you try and love this recipe, please let me know if you do!
