Description

Delightful sourdough muffins filled with blueberries and topped with a crunchy crumb topping, perfect for breakfast or a snack.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups (240 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch
  • Zest of half a lemon
  • 1 cup (150 g) blueberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 8 tablespoons (113 g) butter (melted)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup (125 g) sourdough starter discard
  • 3 tablespoons (45 g) sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon (5 g) vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons (45 g) butter (melted) for crumb topping
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar for crumb topping
  • 1/2 cup (60 g) all-purpose flour for crumb topping


Instructions

  1. Prepare the crumb topping by mixing melted butter, flour, and sugar in a bowl until it forms a coarse crumble. Set aside.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C) and line a 12-count muffin tin with paper liners or grease it.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, corn starch, lemon zest, and salt. Gently toss in blueberries to coat.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, eggs, sourdough starter, sour cream, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. If the batter is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water or milk.
  6. Divide the batter evenly into the muffin tin and top with the crumble mixture, pressing gently.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

Best enjoyed warm. You can serve them with butter or cream cheese. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
