Ingredients
Dry Ingredients:
- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Wet Ingredients:
- ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup (120ml) sourdough discard (unfed)
- ½ cup (120ml) buttermilk or milk
Add-ins:
- 1 ½ cups (225g) fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (to coat the blueberries)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with butter or non-stick spray.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk the melted butter and sugar together until well combined. Add the eggs, vanilla extract, sourdough discard, and buttermilk. Stir until smooth.
Step 4: Combine Wet & Dry Ingredients
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.
Step 5: Prepare Blueberries & Fold In
Toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom. Gently fold them into the batter.
Step 6: Fill Muffin Tin
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
Step 7: Bake
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 8: Cool & Enjoy
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
