Step 1

Step 1

Pre-heat your oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7.

Step 2

Line your muffin tin with cases and set aside.

Step 3

While your oven heats dice your fresh rhubarb into cubes and add to a bowl with your Tate & Lyle caster sugar and mix thoroughly with a spoon. Set aside while you prepare the muffin mix to allow the rhubarb and sugar to start macerating ahead of adding to the mix.

Step 2

Step 1

In a new bowl, add your dry ingredients, sieved plain flour, baking powder, and bicarbonate of soda, stirring through ahead of adding your wet ingredients.

Step 2

Add your egg, oil, and vanilla extract to the rhubarb and sugar mix, combining thoroughly ahead of adding to your dry flour mix.

Step 3

Mix the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and combine thoroughly, adding your milk at the end to loosen the mix.

Step 3

Step 1

Spoon your mixture into your muffin cases, filling each one halfway full. Sprinkle with Tate & Lyle Light Muscovado over the tops for a caramel crunch finish on top.

Step 2

Pop your muffin tray(s) in the oven for 18-20 mins, a skewer should come out clean to check they’re done. Put on a wire rack to cool before tearing in to enjoy the soft, light sponge with pink jewels of sweet and tangy rhubarb.

During the visit to Comptoir, we came across a giant cookie that stopped us in our tracks. Think golden edges, gooey centre, and serious snack envy.
