Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Slice the rhubarb into 1/2-inch pieces and measure out your blueberries, reserving a few for topping the muffins.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
  4. Gently fold the chopped rhubarb and blueberries into the dry mixture.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter until uniform.
  6. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into it, gently folding to combine.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full and pressing reserved blueberries on top.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  9. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
