Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh thyme leaves
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cups Whole milk
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, and fresh thyme leaves.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs. Add the sour cream, milk, and melted butter, mixing until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Evenly distribute the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins pair wonderfully with soups, salads, or a cup of tea.
