Best Ever Rhubarb Streusel Muffins
These Best Ever Rhubarb Streusel Muffins are the perfect sweet snack! This is such an easy recipe that's packed with fresh rhubarb and a sweet, crunchy streusel topping!
Ingredients
For the muffins:
- 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2-3 cups fresh, chopped rhubarb
- 1 cup low fat milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
For the streusel topping:
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 6 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
-
Add the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and cinnamon to a large bowl and whisk together to combine. Add the rhubarb and toss well to coat.
-
Measure the milk and vegetable oil into a large measuring cup, adding the eggs and whisking until all the wet ingredients are combined.
-
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix just until no streaks of flour remain.
-
Combine all the ingredients of the streusel topping and mix with a fork until crumbly.
-
Distribute the muffin batter evenly among the 12 prepared muffin cups and top each with the streusel topping.
-
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes or until the streusel topping is a light golden brown and a toothpick inserted into one of the muffins comes out clean.

These muffins keep at room temperature in an airtight container for about 3 days.

Easy, delicious and quick!
Chrissie says
Thanks Linda! Glad you like the recipe!
daphne says
These are very tasty, but are really huge. I will divide the batter for 15-18 muffins next time.
The Busy Baker says
Thanks! Glad you liked them!
The Busy Baker says
So glad you liked them!!😊
Kate says
I found that both the batter and the topping were far too liquid – more like a cake than a muffin.
Joanne says
I’m really irritated that the topping recipe calls for melted butter. It should have been cold butter. The melted butter made it soupy and not suitable for topping!
Chrissie says
I’m sorry – I’ve never had this experience with the streusel topping. 6 tablespoons of melted butter is very different than 6 tablespoons of butter, melted. Perhaps this is where things went wrong. Hope that helps!
Hilary says
Love that streusel!
The Busy Baker says
I know, I love streusel too!🙂

Every year I pick rhubarb at my grandparents farm to get a good supply in my freezer so I can bake yummy rhubarb treats all year. We are expecting our second baby in 3 weeks so I was looking for an easy recipe to make up and put in my freezer for those late night feeding snacks.
This recipe fit the bill! Obviously I tried one before storing the rest. Delicious. More cake like but I enjoy my sweets.
Thanks!
