Ingredients

200 g sourdough starter active or discard
2 eggs
100 g milk any kind will work
40 g honey
30 g avocado oil or any light flavored oil
5 g vanilla extract
100 g all purpose flour regular or gluten free
150 g cornmeal or almond flour
24 g sugar regular or coconut sugar (can omit if you like)
10 g baking powder
8 g salt

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line a 12 cup muffin tin with parchment baking liners.
To a mixing bowl or stand mixer, add the sourdough starter eggs, and milk and stir until the starter is loosened up. Add the honey, avocado oil, and vanilla and mix until smooth.
Add the flour, cornmeal or almond flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to the bowl and stir until the mixture is just combined (don't overmix).
Use a spoon or a dough scoop to divide the mixture into to the 12 cups of the muffin tin. I did about 2 scoops per cup to fill each about 3/4 of the way.
Transfer to the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the muffins are puffed up, set in the center, and lightly golden. Cool for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Enjoy warm!

Notes

Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for the first couple of days then move to the fridge. To serve, warm in a toaster oven for a minute or two and enjoy!
