Ingredients

For the muffins:

• 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup white sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

2. 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.

3. Measure the milk and vegetable oil into a large measuring cup, adding the eggs and whisking until all the wet ingredients are combined.
