Equipment

  • 12 cup muffin tin

Ingredients

For the Muffins

  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup sourdough starter/discard*
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 tsp vanilla

For the Crumble Topping

  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 5 tbsp olive oil or melted butter

Instructions

  • If making the quick version:
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a large mixing bowl add the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix well.
  • In a separate bowl mix the wet ingredients together.
  • Fold the blueberries into the flour mixture.
  • Add the wet to the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Do not overmix.
  • Scoop evenly into a 12 cup muffin tin.
  • Make the crumb topping by mixing the flour, sugar, and olive oil or melted butter until crumbly.
  • Scoop the crumb topping over the muffin batter.
  • Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Allow to cool for a few minutes and then move to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • See notes for storage information.
  • If doing the long fermented version:
  • The night before add the flour, honey, oil, and starter to a large bowl. Mix, cover, and allow to ferment overnight*
  • The next day add the remaining ingredients and follow above instructions for making crumb topping and baking.

Notes

*You may use either active sourdough starter or sourdough discard for this recipe*
*You can also mix the flour, oil, honey, and starter and store covered in the fridge for up to a week before proceeding with the recipe*
Storage tips: These muffins will store well at room temperature for 3-5 days. You can also allow them to cool completely and store in a freezer bag or freezer safe container in the freezer for up to 6 months. I choose this method and reheat the muffins as needed to preserve their freshness.
