In a large bowl, mix the the dry ingredients together (plain flour, baking powder, sugar and cinnamon). In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, milk and cooled melted butter.

Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ones along with the rhubarb (don’t overmix, it should be a bit lumpy). Divide between the muffin cases, sprinkle the tops with demerara sugar and bake for 25-30 minutes until risen and golden.
