Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries hulled and chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups rhubarb chopped
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar for topping
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon for topping

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and buttermilk until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Fold in the chopped strawberries and rhubarb until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  7. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the tops of the muffins.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
