Calories: 218kcal
Ingredients
- ½ cup Butter Melted
- ½ cup Brown Sugar
- 2 Eggs
- ½ cup Unfed Sourdough Starter
- ½ cup Applesauce
- 1 ¾ cup All Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon Salt
Streusel Topping
- ½ cup Brown Sugar
- ¼ cup All Purpose Flour
- 2 TBS Butter Melted
Instructions
- 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.
Notes
- Homemade applesauce or store bought applesauce are interchangeable in this recipe.
- If you don't have sourdough discard, buttermilk or sour cream can be substituted.
