Rhubarb Pecan Muffins

This muffin recipe won the CBC radio contest for the best muffin recipe in Canada several years ago.

• 2 cups all purpose flour
• ¾ cup sugar
• 1 ½ tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp salt
• ¾ cup chopped pecans
• 1 large egg
• ¼ cup vegetable oil
• 2 tsp grated orange rind
• ¾ cup orange juice
• 1 ¼ cups fine chopped fresh rhubarb

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nuts. In a medium bowl, beat egg. Add oil, orange rind and juice. Add to flour all at once and stir just until batter is moist. Stir in rhubarb. [can add in a dollop of plain dairy-free yogurt or sour cream to insure a moist muffin]

Lightly grease 12 large muffin cups and fill ¾ full. Bake at 350 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes

Makes 12 muffins
