Blueberries are always a favorite addition to homemade treats at our house. Whether it’s pancakes or muffins, you can bet they get consumed quickly. I love these sourdough blueberry streusel muffins, because they can be made quickly and you still get that yummy sourdough taste. (See notes on changes to make if you follow a bulk fermentation schedule).

Materials Needed:

• 2 Mixing Bowls
• Mixing Spoon
• Fork
• Cupcake Tin
• Cupcake Liners
• Oil for spraying

Ingredients Needed:

Muffin Base:

• 1 cup (275g) sourdough discard
• 1 cup (240g) milk
• 2tsp vanilla extract
• ½ c unsalted butter (Melted)
• 2 Eggs (Room Temp)
• 2 cups (250g) unbleached flour (Spooned)
• 2 tsp (10g) baking powder
• ½ tsp (3g) baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 Eggs (Room Temp)
• 14oz blueberries
• Extra flour for dusting blueberries

Streusel Topping:

• 1c (125g) unbleached flour (spooned)
• 1/3c (65g) brown sugar (packed)
• 1/4c white cane sugar
• Pinch of Salt
• 5 tbsp unsalted butter

Instructions

Batter

Preheat Oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit

Combine sourdough discard, milk, vanilla, butter, and eggs into a bowl. Mix until well combined

Add unbleached flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt on top. (I usually just give the dry ingredients a little mix on top before mixing in the wet ingredients below)

*Rinse your blueberries then dust them with flour. (This will help them not all sink to the bottom during baking.

Incorporate blueberries into the batter.

Streusel Topping

Add all the ingredients into a bowl.

Using a fork or hands, combine mash all the ingredients together until they are all well mixed. It should have a crumbly sort of texture when you are finished.

Add a generous amount of streusel to the top of each muffin. Don’t be shy, it’s what adds that extra sweet taste.

Line a cupcake pan with desired cupcake liners, then grease them with a little oil. I like this one!

**Pour batter into each cupcake liner until it is full to the brim.

Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until the sourdough blueberry muffins nice and golden brown.

Notes:

1. Dusting your blueberries with flour will help prevent them from all sinking to the bottom and more evenly incorporate into your batter.
2. Growing up, I was always taught to only fill cupcake liners half way. You can totally do this, but you won’t get that puffy “muffin” top when it’s finished baking it’ll probably only come to the top of the cupcake liner more like a cupcake rather than a muffin which is great if you are trying to make things go a little farther or create smaller serving sizes.
