Serves: 24 muffins
Ingredients
3 cups cake flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 cups pure maple syrup
6 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup sour cream
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325°F.
Place muffin liners in a standard 12 cup muffin pan. (We used parchment paper liners and love them!)
Sift flour, baking soda and salt into medium bowl and set aside.
In a stand mixer, beat the butter in large bowl at medium speed until fluffy.
Slowly add the maple syrup and beat 5 minutes.
Add one egg at-a-time, beating just until combined after adding each egg.
Remove the bowl from the stand mixer.
Add dry ingredients and mix gently with a rubber spatula until everything is combined.
Mix in sour cream until well combined.
Transfer batter to muffin liners until each one is ¾ full.
Bake muffins for 40 minutes. Use a cake tester or toothpick inserted near centre to see if it comes out clean
Let muffins cool in the pan on a cooling rack for about 10 minutes.
Remove them from the muffin tin and let them finish cooling off on a cooling rack.
