Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and add Greek yogurt, honey, olive oil, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped rhubarb, distributing it evenly throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 of the way full.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Don’t overmix the batter to ensure light, fluffy muffins.
If using frozen rhubarb, thaw and drain it to prevent soggy muffins.
Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
If you prefer a vegan version, substitute the eggs with flaxseed eggs and use dairy-free yogurt.
