Method

Preheat the oven to gas 5, 190°C, fan 170°C, and line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper cases. Rub together the diced butter, 30g flour and the cinnamon to coarse crumbs; stir in 15g sugar. Set aside in the fridge.
Meanwhile, toss the rhubarb with 20g sugar. Roast for 12-13 mins or until just soft. Set aside to cool; strain off the juices.
Beat the 100g butter with the remaining 150g caster sugar in a mixing bowl until well combined, then beat in the vanilla, eggs, yogurt, orange zest and ginger. Fold in the remaining flour until just mixed. Stir through half the rhubarb; spoon into the paper cases.
Scatter over the remaining rhubarb, the crumble mix and almonds. Bake for 25 mins or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool in the tin for 10 mins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
