Chocolate sourdough muffins

These chocolate muffins are a replica of my sourdough fruit muffins with cinnamon.

They are a bit sweeter and more dessert like, but I am very happy with the result. Here is a comparison of the two versions next to each other:

If you do not have an airfryer, I usually increase the temperature by 20 C and the time by a few minutes. It will all depend on your oven.

Baking temperature airfryer: 160 C
Baking temperature oven: 180 C

Ingredients

  • 35 g of melted/softened butter
  • 60 g of sugar (I use cane coconut sugar)
  • 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder
  • 1 egg
  • 150 g of sourdough
  • 95 g of white flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • chopped chocolate or chocolate chips to taste (don’t exaggerate)

Directions

  1. First mix the 34 g of  butter with the 60 g of sugar.
  2. Add the 1 tablespoon of cocoa and the egg and mix well to dissolve the sugar.
  3. Add the 150 g sourdough and continue mixing for a bit.
  4. Mix in the chocolate:
  5. At the end add the 95 g of flour and the 1 teaspoon of baking powder.
  6. Scoop the dough in the muffin forms.
  7. At the very end I smooth the surface with a wet spoon. This makes the top of the muffin nice and glossy.
  8. Place in the cold airfryer and start at 160C for 13 min.
  9. And they are ready!
