Equipment

  • Muffin tin
  • Muffin Liners
  • Scale , optional
  • Measuring Cups , if not using a scale
  • Measuring Spoons , if not using a scale
  • Large Bowl , for dry ingredients
  • Medium Bowl , for wet ingredients
  • spatula
  • Ice cream or cookie scoop , to fit about 1/4 cup

Ingredients

  • 240 g Flour 2 cups
  • 175 g Sugar 3/4 cup
  • 20 g Baking powder 1 tbsp
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 4 g Salt 3/4 tsp
  • 100 g Sourdough discard 1/2 cup
  • 84 g Milk 1/3 cup
  • 60 g Sour cream 1/4 cup
  • 55 g Avocado oil 1/4 cup
  • 100 g Eggs 2 large eggs
  • 20 g Vanilla extract 1 tbsp
  • 8 oz Chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (218°C).
  • Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups to prevent sticking.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
    240 g Flour, 175 g Sugar, 20 g Baking powder, 1 tsp Baking soda, 4 g Salt
  • In a medium bowl, mix the wet ingredients. Whisk them together until you have a smooth consistency.
    84 g Milk, 100 g Eggs, 60 g Sour cream, 55 g Avocado oil, 100 g Sourdough discard, 20 g Vanilla extract
  • Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Use a spatula to gently fold the ingredients together. Be careful not to overmix—stop when there are no large flour streaks and the batter is just combined.
  • Add 1 cup of chocolate chips and fold them into the batter, distributing them evenly.
    8 oz Chocolate chips
  • Fill each muffin cup about a little over ¾ full with the batter using an ice cream scoop or spoon.
  • Add the muffin tin into the oven and bake at 425°F(218°C) for 10 minutes. After the 10 minutes, reduce the temperature to 375°F(190°C) and bake for about 5-10 more minutes.
  • After baking, let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once cooled, serve your sourdough discard chocolate chip muffins with a glass of milk or your favorite coffee or tea.

Notes

  • This recipe yields 12 regular-size muffins. If you use the tulip liners, double the recipe and increase the batter per muffin. 
  • Reduce baking time to 10-15 minutes to turn this into mini muffins.
