Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan) and grease or line a six-hole mega muffin tray.
  2. Whisk together the starter, milk, egg, melted butter, brown sugar and vanilla.
  3. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt separately, then mix into the wet ingredients just until combined.
  4. Fold in the chocolate chips and divide evenly among the six cups.
  5. Bake for 5 minutes at 200°C (180°C fan), then reduce to 180°C (160°C fan) for another 20–30 minutes, until golden and a skewer comes out clean. The card gives an internal temperature of 96–99°C.
  6. Cool in the tray for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
