250g plain (all purpose) flour
2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
1 tsp ground ginger
150g caster (super fine) sugar
125ml sunflower or vegetable oil
1 tbsp ginger syrup from a jar of stem ginger
2 medium eggs

  • In another large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, ground ginger and caster sugar.
  • In a jug, combine the oil, ginger syrup, eggs and sour cream. Fold this mixture into the dry ingredients, followed by the rhubarb and chopped stem ginger. Remember a lumpy muffin gives the best results, so take care not to over mix.

RHUBARB & GINGER MUFFINS

Julie Stafford's wonderful muffin recipes revolutionised my baking. She introduced me to apple juice concentrate, which contains only 66% sugar and lots of vitamins, minerals and fibre not found in other sweeteners. You can make your own by boiling down pure apple juice to a syrup-like reduction, but good health food stores should have it. This is my absolute favourite muffin, moist and full of flavour....thanks, Julie!
