Description

Delicious muffins made with sourdough discard and ripe bananas that offer a tender crumb and tangy flavor.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas and melted butter thoroughly.
  3. Stir in the sourdough discard, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until well mixed.
  4. Add the baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using) and mix well.
  5. Gradually fold in the flour until just combined.
  6. Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full with the batter.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Allow to cool before serving.

Notes

Use ripe bananas for the best flavor. Do not overmix the batter for light and fluffy muffins.
