Start your morning right with Sourdough Blueberry Muffins, bursting with juicy berries and a hint of sourdough tang. These muffins are soft, fluffy, and packed with flavor. Ideal alongside a cup of coffee or as a delicious treat!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of sourdough starter, fresh or leftover.

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour

  • 1/2 cup sugar

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 1/2 cup milk

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

  • Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and place paper liners in a muffin tray.
  • In a big bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt by whisking them together.
  • In a separate bowl, blend the sourdough starter with the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla.
  • Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring gently until everything is just blended.
  • Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix.
  • Evenly distribute the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle.
  • Let the muffins cool in the tray for 5 minutes, then move them to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Notes

  • These muffins contain added sugar and butter, so it’s important to enjoy them in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
1. Can I use frozen blueberries?

Yes, frozen blueberries work well. Just fold them in frozen to prevent bleeding into the batter.

2. How should I store leftover muffins?

Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 1 months.

3. Can I substitute the sourdough starter?

Yes, you can use plain yogurt or buttermilk as a substitute for the sourdough starter, but the flavor will differ slightly.
