Ingredients

  • 240 grams All-purpose flour
  • 150 grams Granulated sugar
  • 10 grams Baking powder
  • 2.5 grams Salt
  • 115 grams Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 120 grams Sourdough starter discard (unfed)
  • 120 milliliters Whole milk
  • 5 milliliters Vanilla extract
  • 200 grams Fresh blueberries
  • 15 grams Turbinado sugar (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or spray with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, sourdough starter discard, whole milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully incorporated.

Step 4

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, gently folding until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can toughen the muffins.

Step 5

Gently fold in the blueberries, taking care not to crush them, until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. If using, sprinkle a little turbinado sugar on top of each muffin for a crunchy finish.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
