Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sourdough starter (discard)
  • 1/2 cup sugar (or coconut sugar)
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (or half whole wheat)
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter and sugar until creamy. Add vegetable oil and vanilla extract, then mix well.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; gently fold this mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  4. Fold in the lemon zest and blueberries carefully to avoid crushing the berries.
  5. Line a muffin tin with paper liners and fill each cup about two-thirds full with batter.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Allow muffins to cool in the pan for five minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
