Baking Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, milk, and sourdough discard. Stir until fully combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Fold into wet mixture until combined, being careful not to overmix.
  4. Prepare your muffin tin by greasing it or lining it with muffin liners.
  5. Spoon the muffin batter into the cups, filling about 2/3 to 3/4 full. Optionally, sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden-brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
