Instructions

1 Gather and prepare all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400°F.

2 In a medium bowl, add the sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, milk, lemon juice, and zest. Stir to combine.

3 In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

4 Add the sugar mixture into the large bowl, folding to combine. Lastly, fold in the blueberries and rhubarb.

5 To make the streusel topping, in a medium bowl, add the butter, brown sugar, and flour. Using a fork, combine all ingredients until crumbly. You do not want a paste.

6 Spray the muffin pan generously with nonstick cooking spray. Evenly divide the batter into the pan. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly on top of each muffin.

7 Bake for 15-20 minutes until the muffins have puffed up and are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.
