Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F (220C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until well-combined.
- In a large measuring cup (or a separate mixing bowl), combine the hot water, cocoa, and instant coffee (if using). Whisk until smooth.
- Add sour cream, avocado oil, egg, and vanilla extract and whisk well.
- Add sourdough discard to the measuring cup and whisk until ingredients are well incorporated.
- Add wet ingredients to the flour mixture and use a spatula to gently fold together until about halfway combined. Add chocolate chips and continue to fold until ingredients are just combined.
- Divide batter into prepared muffin tin, filling each liner nearly to the rim. Note that this recipe makes 18 muffins, if you only have a single 12-count liner it is fine for the batter to sit, covered, on the counter, while the first batch bakes.
- Sprinkle muffins with additional chocolate chips, if desired, and transfer to center rack of 425F (220C) oven. Bake for 8 minutes, then, without opening the oven door, reduce oven temperature to 350F (175C) and continue to bake for 9-10 minutes longer or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with moist/fudgy crumbs (not wet batter).
- Allow muffins to cool for 5-10 minutes in the muffin tin before gently removing from the tin (careful, the tin is hot! I use a butter knife to gently pry up each muffin) and transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes
