Almond Rhubarb Muffins with Almond Streusel
Ingredients
for the muffins
- 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup salted butter, room temperature
- 3 tablespoons vegetable (or canola) oil
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped rhubarb
for the streusel
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons white sugar
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- pinch of salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
- 1/4 cup slivered almonds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a standard size muffin tin with 12 liners and set aside.
- In a large bowl, sift together both flours, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a standing mixer with paddle attachment, whisk together butter, oil, eggs, and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add in both extracts and mix well.
- Turn speed to low and add in flour mixture and chopped rhubarb. Do not over mix.
- In a separate bowl make the streusel. Combine the flour, brown sugar, and white sugar until completely combined. Add in the butter and use a pastry cutter to combine until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Add in the slivered almonds.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin. Top each with a spoonful or two of streusel. Bake for 20 minutes, or until cakes are lightly brown on the top and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Allow to cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar or enjoy as is!
