Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter, sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well-blended.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet mixture. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Distribute the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Baking
  1. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  2. Allow the muffins to cool for a few minutes in the tin before transferring them to a wire rack.

Notes

Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze for up to three months. For a twist, substitute chocolate chips with raisins or dried fruits.
