Rhubarb Yogurt Muffins



Ingredients:
three cups diced rhubarb, divided travel (if frozen, defrost)
two cups flour
2/3 loving cup sugar
3/4 loving cup 0% Greek yogurt, at room temperature*
1/4 loving cup canola oil
1 teaspoon dry reason roasted ginger**
1 teaspoon vanilla paste
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
two eggs, at room temperature


Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Grease or delineate of piece of employment sixteen wells inward a muffin tin. In a blender or nutrient processor (I used my Vita-Mix) pulse the yogurt together with 1 1/2 cups rhubarb together until smooth. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry out ingredients. Set aside. In a large bowl, mix together the rhubarb mixture, oil, eggs together with vanilla until good blended (or merely popular the oil, eggs together with vanilla inward the blender on transcend of the yogurt mixture) together with pulse in ane trial or twice hence pour it into a bowl). Add the dry out ingredients. Mix the batter thoroughly hence flexure inward remaining rhubarb. Fill each good close 3/4 of the way. Bake for twenty minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the midpoint of the midpoint muffin comes out amongst merely a few dry out crumbs. Cool on wire rack.

*A higher fatty yogurt would in all likelihood piece of employment too; 0% Fage is what Costco carries hence I used that.
**Made past times McCormick. Find it inward the spice aisle. Sub regular if require be.

Note: If your rhubarb is rattling red, your batter volition live on pink. If not, yous tin add together a drib of nutrient dye merely for fun. The colouring fabric does fade a flake during the baking process.

My thoughts:
Ever since the peachy rhubarb scare of '08* I hoard together with freeze rhubarb inward slightly insane quantities. It freezes truly good together with hence I convey the pick of developing recipes inward the off flavor together with scheduling them when it is. This time, rhubarb is truly merely coming into flavor but final black I used upwards the final of my frozen rhubarb to brand these muffins. And what wonderful muffins they are; rattling low-cal together with airy (dare i seat souffle-like?) but moist at the same time. The combination of the homemade rhubarb yogurt together with diced rhubarb brand them sense of savor truly rhubarby inward every bite, non merely when yous seize amongst teeth into a chunk. The perfect rhubarb muffin.


*I was writing the starting fourth dimension edition of Simply Seasonal, my bimonthly column close eating seasonal foods inward the Chesapeake Bay area. It was for the March upshot hence it had to live on close rhubarb equally pretty much nil else would evenly remotely live on inward season. I had merely gotten the gig hence I entirely had close a calendar week exercise a novel recipe, photograph the nutrient together with write the article. It was Feb hence rhubarb was out of flavor but I had seen it sold frozen at many supermarkets inward the past times together with checking dorsum on my ain recipe archive, I had made a tart amongst fresh rhubarb for Valentine's Day ane twelvemonth hence I idea I powerfulness fifty-fifty live on able to uncovering fresh. However, when I went to purchase it, it was no where to live on found. My family, together with friends together with I went on a massive rhubarb hunt. My hubby fifty-fifty called Dole's frozen diversion together with they told him at that spot had been a rhubarb blight(!) inward Hawaii hence they didn't convey rhubarb to send to stores. It was an exhausting, fruitless (vegetableless) week. Of course, ane calendar week later I turned my article inward (with a slightly improvised picture) I flora fresh rhubarb at H Mart.
