Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup Butter (Melted)
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
2 Eggs
1/2 cup Unfed Sourdough Starter
1/2 cup Applesauce
1 3/74 cup All Purpose Flour
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Baking Powder
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/4 cup All Purpose Flour
2 TBS Butter (Melted)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a muffin tin with muffin liners.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the all purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Mix the melted butter and brown sugar together until fully combined. Add the eggs, sourdough starter, and apple sauce. Mix until combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Try not to overmix, as that will cause the muffins to be tough.
  • In another small bowl, add the streusel ingredients and mix them to combine them.
  • Scoop the batter into the muffin tins and top each with about a tablespoon of the streusel mixture. Put the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

APPLE SOURDOUGH MUFFINS

Here's another use for the sourdough starter you have to "discard" once or twice a week to maintain a fresh and useful starter. I put these together ad lib with things I had on hand. They were an experiment that turned out great!

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 c sourdough starter, room temperature
1 small apple, cored and chopped in blender
(or 1/2 cup apple sauce)
1/3 c oats or oat bran
1/4 c sorghum or molasses
1/4 c sugar
1/4 c egg whites
(or 1 egg)
1 1/3 c flour, divided
(i used white whole wheat flour)
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375°. Grease 12 muffin cups.
  • 2. In a large mixing bowl, stir together sourdough starter, apple (or applesauce), oats, sorghum, sugar, and egg whites (or egg).
  • 3. Add 1 cup of the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon all at once to sourdough mixture, and stir well. Now, depending on how liquid your mixture is, add in up to 1/3 cup more flour, until you get a fairly thick muffin batter. You do not want it runny. This step you have to do by experience, because everyone's sourdough starter varies in consistency and affects the liquid in the recipe.
  • 4. When you get the right batter consistency, fill muffin cups 2/3 full. Bake for 20 minutes. Cool 2 minutes in pan, then turn onto rack to finish cooling. That is, if they last that long. They smell really good and seem to attract hungry people into the kitchen.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sourdough starter: Use a mature and active starter that has been fed within the last 12 hours. If your starter is not active, it will not produce enough carbon dioxide to leaven the muffins.
  • Use fresh apples: Fresh apples will give your muffins the best flavor and texture. If you are using older apples, be sure to peel and core them before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: This will help them to rise quickly and develop a golden brown crust.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the muffins to set.

Conclusion:

These apple sourdough muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They are perfect for using up leftover sourdough starter, and they are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a tasty and healthy muffin recipe, be sure to give these apple sourdough muffins a try.
