Notes
- Both regular and gluten free sourdough discard can be used. Stir before measuring.
- Likewise, both regular all purpose and gluten free 1 to 1 flour can be used.
- For these photos, I used gluten free sourdough discard, gluten free flour and coconut sugar.
- The batter may be a little bit crumbly. Continue mixing until mostly smooth.
- Do not over bake muffins. Mine were perfect at 14 minutes total.
- Store muffins covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- These muffins tend to firm up when placed in the fridge or freezer. Therefore, I recommend eating them fresh.
