Our Farm Kid-Emma is such a great baker. She just loves to cook and is getting quite good at it. It makes this momma’s heart smile to see her learning and succeeding at something she loves to do!
She has dubbed Monday mornings as “Muffin Mondays”. She makes some of the most delicious muffins ever! I’m not just saying it because she is my baby girl. These muffins are made using discarded sourdough starter. She also makes some great cinnamon muffins too. Here is how she does her kitchen magic:
Emma’s Chocolate Chip Sourdough Muffins

Gather the ingredients
First order of business- gathering the ingredients.
Next- Mix dry ingredients together in one bowl. In another bowl mix wet ingredients. Now, add them all together and mix well.

Scoop the batter into tins
Scoop the batter into muffin tins. Fill each tin about 2/3 full. Bake at 400° for 15-17 minutes or until done. (Muffin tops will spring back when pressed gently)

Delicious and ready to serve
They are so yummy and so easy! They are one of our family favorites for sure!

What a great way to use up sour dough starter. I have some in my frig that needed used up. I know my family would love this.
They are yummy. Pancakes are great too with discarded sourdough starter. 🙂
What an interesting recipe! My sourdough has been on vacation for months. I always find it difficult to use up, so I’ve been avoiding starting back up with it. A recipe that uses up 2 whole cups of starter and sounds delicious to boot? Perfect! Thanks for a great post!
I always try to find ways to use it up before the discard takes over the fridge. 🙂
Mmmm. I love me some muffins.
that was a AMAZING recipe and i bet ALL my money that emma is a great cook 😁
