Description

A comforting and straightforward recipe for deliciously moist sour cream muffins that are perfect for breakfast or a snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups (180g) all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup (240g) full-fat sour cream
  • 1/3 cup (75ml) vegetable oil (or melted butter)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Prepare a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until slightly frothy, then add sour cream, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
  4. Combine wet ingredients with dry ingredients. Gently fold until just combined; the batter will be slightly lumpy.
  5. Fill the muffin cups about three-quarters full with batter.
  6. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Make sure your eggs and dairy products are at room temperature for better mixing and aeration. Store muffins in an airtight container for optimal freshness.
