Rhubarb & Ginger Muffins are a tasty and healthy twist on the traditional muffin recipe. Rhubarb is a versatile vegetable that adds a tangy and juicy flavor to sweet dishes, while ginger provides a warm and spicy kick that complements the sourness of rhubarb. These muffins are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a snack on the go. The texture of the muffins is moist and fluffy, and the combination of the flours and eggs makes them filling and satisfying. You can enjoy them plain or with a dollop of Greek yogurt or whipped cream on top for an extra treat.

2.In a large bowl, mix self-rising flour, whole wheat flour, and ground ginger.

4.In another bowl, mix grapeseed oil, apple juice concentrate (or honey), low-fat milk (or soymilk), and egg whites (or whole eggs).
5.Pour the wet mixture over the dry mixture and mix until combined.
6.Fill the muffin cases almost up to the top with the mixture and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
