Deliciously Moist Sourdough Pumpkin Muffins are a perfect blend of pumpkin and sourdough, creating a moist and flavorful treat for any time of day.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

  • 1 cup chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with colorful paper liners.
  2. Whisk together the sourdough discard, pumpkin puree, sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
  3. Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in another bowl. Stir gently to mix.
  4. Add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
