Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, and melted butter until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the sun-dried tomatoes, basil, parsley, mozzarella, and parmesan until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins pair well with soup, salad, or a bit of herb butter on the side.
