Ingredients
1/2 cup (100g) Active Sourdough Starter
3/4 cup (180g) Warm Filtered Water
3 cups (360g) Organic All-Purpose Flour
1 tablespoon Raw Honey or Maple Syrup
1 teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
2 tablespoons Melted Coconut Oil or Ghee
Organic Cornmeal for dusting
Instructions
- In a large glass bowl, combine your active sourdough starter, warm water, and honey. Whisk gently until the starter dissolves and the mixture appears bubbly
- Gradually add the flour and sea salt to the liquid mixture. Use a sturdy wooden spoon or your hands to mix until a shaggy dough forms
- Pour the melted coconut oil or ghee over the dough. Knead the dough inside the bowl for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and slightly elastic
- Cover the bowl with a damp cloth or beeswax wrap. Let the dough rest at room temperature for 8 to 12 hours
- Gently turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 8 to 10 equal portions. Roll each portion into a smooth ball and flatten it slightly
- Place the discs on a baking sheet dusted generously with cornmeal. Sprinkle more cornmeal on top and let them rise for another 45 to 60 minutes
- Heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over low-medium heat. Carefully place the muffins in the pa
- Cook each side for approximately 5 to 7 minutes until golden brown and the centers reach an internal temperature of 200°F
- Transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely
Notes
Use a fork to split the muffins open to preserve the internal air pockets.
Ensure the griddle temperature stays low to avoid burning the exterior before cooking the interior.
