What You Need To Make Rhubarb Banana Muffins
You don’t need any specialized items to make these simple muffins- just a muffin pan, muffin tins, and a mixing bowl.
A spatula is helpful for folding the batter and scrapping the sides of the bowl, but you can get away with any mixing spoon you have. A cooling rack is another great tool to help these muffins cool faster so you can enjoy them sooner!
Common Questions:
Does the rhubarb need to be fresh?
Not at all! You can use frozen, however it is best to set out your rhubarb for around an hour to defrost. If you try to bake with completely frozen rhubarb it will affect the baking time. These muffins bake in about 20 minutes, if you use froze it can take anywhere from 30-40 minutes for them to be fully cooked.
This recipe doesn’t need eggs?
Nope! This is one of those accidentally vegan recipes where there are no eggs or egg replacements required! The banana in this recipe works as a binder for these muffins- meaning you are missing nothing with this egg free muffin recipe!
