Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sourdough starter (active and bubbly)
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the sourdough starter, milk, vegetable oil, egg, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the fresh blueberries gently to avoid crushing them.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For an extra touch, sprinkle coarse sugar on top of the muffins before baking for a crunchy finish.
