- Hello there and welcome back to our farmhouse this week! This week has been a bit of a doozy with sick kids and an unpredictable schedule, I'm sure you've been there too! So today I'm working in the kitchen on some sourdough blueberry muffins and a country comfort meal for dinner. Come along and we'll chat about keeping things in perspective when life throws you a few curve balls.
And THANK YOU so much for 10,000 subscribes! So glad you're here!

RECIPES
Sourdough Blueberry Muffins (here's my current recipes - still perfecting it, would love your feedback!)
1 cup sourdough discard (unfed, I used mine straight out of the fridge)
1/2 cup melted butter
2 eggs
1 cup white sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla
3/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup sour cream (or plain greek yogurt)
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup blueberries
(makes 12 large muffins)
Mix the wet ingredients. Then add in the dry ingredients until well combined. Fold in the blueberries (saving a few for the tops of the muffins).
Streusel topping:
1/4 cup melted butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/8 tsp. cinnamon
Mix together with a fork, should resemble wet sand. Crumble over top of muffins and bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 min or until toothpick runs clean.

Moist is definitely the word
Quick tip add sour cream and lemon rind , the sour cream makes such a moist muffin and the lemon rind add such a great flavour that complements the blueberry.
I added Greek yogurt instead of sour cream because I always have it on hand but may have to try sour cream next time instead. And yes, lemon and blueberries is always a win! Thanks for your suggestions!
"what a privilege it is to be bored with food" that's so good! Grateful and thankful for what I have this morning ❤ thank you for sharing 🥰
Glad that hit for you too! 🥰 We have so much to be grateful for! Thank you so much for leaving me a sweet comment! ❤️
The most wholesome corner of the internet 😭❤️
Awe thank you so much! What a compliment! 🥰
Here it has been raining non stop we are a bit tired but it stoped today so I'm happy. I miss my walks
We got a ton of rain too… although much needed I too am excited for some sunny days outside! Time for longs walks and baseball games! Thanks so much for stopping by! ❤️
Hope the kiddos are doing better. Your videos are so inspiring and the highlight of my Friday evenings!
Awe thanks Katie! I was a bit behind getting this one posted 😅 Hope all is well! Have a good weekend!
I use coconut oil in most of my baking and I bake a TON! I love the taste and I always add a dash of buttermilk....:))
I don’t mind coconut oil but I guess since I’m not a huge coconut fan I dont reach for it flavor wise. It’s a great substitute though!! Buttermilk I love but don’t seem to buy very often. Thanks so much for chatting and stopping by today!
Lauren, I hope your kids are all feeling better. I’m in the middle of a big project at work, I come home & I am tired. I may not want to cook, or leave the laundry in the dryer too long. Then I get frustrated by my lack of effort, but I have told myself it’s ok, I have to balance it all. Thank you for your wisdom, I needed to hear it. I’m continuing to pray for you & your baby 🩷
Thank you so much Sarah! You’re so right, give yourself grace, you’re obviously juggling a lot and definitely are not lacking effort! ❤️ There’s a season for it all and that’s ok. Thanks so much for taking the time to leave me a sweet comment! 🥰Really appreciate it. Have a good weekend!

Thank you so much and thanks for subscribing! Hope to see you back here again soon!
Wonderful video. Good good, well children, a loving husband and an attitude of gratitude. God is good.
Yes He is! So many blessing amongst the chaos this week! 🙏 Not always easy to have the attitude of gratitude but it sure does turn things around when we do! ❤️ Thanks so much for watching and leaving me a comment!
just found your channel Hope your family is feeling better when I make muffins i found if you sprinkle a little vanilla pudding instant in the mix really makes a moist muffin, I also do it to my banana bread.God Bless
That’s an idea I wouldn’t have thought of! Thanks for sharing and watching! ❤️
Enjoyed.
Thank you! 🥰
Cara Lauren, spero tanto che i tuoi ragazzi stiano meglio. Tu sei una roccia , fai tantissime cose, nonostante la tua gravidanza. Ti ammiro molto. La piccola Reese che carina con il suo abito verde.
Un bacio a tutti voi
Thank you so much! All seem to be doing much better! 🥰 🙏
Love your heart
Awe thank you Lisa ❤️ Glad you stopped by!
Loved your ideas on a homemakers perspective.🫶🏻
It’s easier said than done most days but that thought really hit me this week! Thanks for stopping by Sarah! ❤️
I love your earrings so much!! Thanks for sharing 🥰
Thank you so much! ❤️
God Bless your babies...pray they get feeling better and stay well. I hope you don't get sick. 🙏. Yes, for sure, we too have been blessed and never hungry. Truly a gift that we should never take for granted. Thanks for the visit my friend. ♥️
Thank you for the visit! Love hearing from you! I think everyone is finally on the mend! 🤞🤞 Thanks for the prayers too! ❤️
@@rustichoneynew here Love your video❤ congrats on your new prgency Hope your kids feel better. I will pay for you to have a healthy birth
hey girl- love the video!😀😉 yummy food😋 those muffins look amazing! So glad the kids are doing better🤗 Y'all have a blessed day🥰
Thank you so much! Doing better, thankfully! 🙏
Such a lovely video and message. I hope you are all healthy again.❤️❤️ My biggest muffin advice is to not use a mixer, add wet to dry, and mix with a gentle hand - almost use a folding technique. A lumpy, ugly batter will yield a beautiful, tender muffin. And I feel you on the months and months of recipe testing😅
Thank you, that’s great to know! ❤️ And I think we’re all finally on the mend! Thanks for stopping by!
Yea!! Another vlog! Made my night!
Thank you so much Janie! I felt like life wasn’t too “vlog worthy” this week 😆😅but I’m so happy to share the real life nuggets and so glad to hear you enjoy watching. Thanks for leaving me a sweet message! Have a good weekend!
I’ve found the moistest (sorry!) muffin recipes I’ve made have plain whole yogurt or plain Greek yogurt! Maybe that can help but those muffins look amazing 🤩🤤 haha
Hope everyone gets to feeling better soon!
Thank you so much! I would agree, I love adding in sour cream or Greek yogurt, makes a difference! Thanks for stopping by!
Country cooking is the best!
❤lifeatthenutthouse

oil for moist muffins. Spread butter in the middle after it is baked. Thank you for the video.
Amen to that! Always best with butter! Thanks so much for watching and commenting! Hope to see you back here again soon! ❤️
Congratulations on 10.000 subscribers !! 🩷
Thank you so much! ❤️
Such a wonderful video.Hooe everyone is feeling good now.
Seem to finally be on the mend 🙏😅Thank you! Glad you stopped by, have a good weekend!
Use a cup of applesauce in your blueberry muffin recipe. 😋
Mmm applesauce is a good idea too! Thanks for sharing and watching!
I use both butter and oil in my muffin recipes. If I’m out of butter, I use butter extract. I just like the extra layer of flavor!!
That’s good to know! I’ve never used a butter extract. Thank you for sharing and watching!
Those biscuits are the best. If you have an air fryer they are great cooked in there. I really love your shirt.
Oooh yum! Those biscuits + air fryer = sounds amazing!! 🤤 Need to try that! And thank you, I’ve had this shirt for probably 15 years now! 😅😆 Still a favorite!
Great video and looks like a great channel - subscribed!❤
Thank you so much! ❤️Glad you enjoyed the video and appreciate the subscribe!
Lemon or orange zest brings out the blueberries flavor
I do like lemon with blueberry, always a yummy pair. Thanks for stopping by!
Watching you is therapeutic for me. You are so pleasant to listen to. You must not have much further to go with your pregnancy. Sometime in May, right? Best of luck.
I love to hear that, so glad you stopped by! If I'm being honest, I almost didn't make a video this week, but something about putting it altogether and finding these themes (like perspective) is therapeutic for me as well. AND it makes it all worthwhile to hear from viewers like you. So thank you!!
New subscriber from Texas. Really enjoyed your Pioneer Woman video. Now watching others.
God bless you and your growing family. When are you due? 😊
Thank you so much, thanks for leaving me a note! Glad to hear you’re enjoying my channel. 🥰 I’m due any day now! 😅 May 5th is my due date!
Prayers for you all at this special time. 🙏🏻🥰
Love your videos. A long time ago, I heard this pronunciation foe worcestershire= wheres your sister sauce. LOL. Have never been able to shake that since I heard it. It is the first thing I think of. :)
😂 I LOVE that! Will have to remember that one, too good! Lol! I’ll be practicing! Thank you so much for stopping by and sharing! Have a good weekend!
Hello, hope everyone gets well soon. May I ask when the baby is due? I will eat those muffins...lol. Enjoy your day. STTB*SHARED TOT HE BURGH*Pittsburgh PA.
The muffins definitely disappeared lol! I’m due the first week of May! So really any day at this point! 🙏❤️ Thanks for stopping by!
@@rustichoney I am the youngest of 10; 5boys and 5 girls if I did not tell you already.
I think butter lends a more moist muffin
Butter is always a good choice! Thanks for watching!
Worcestershire sauce, was made in Worcester, England and pronounced just like the town it come from "Woostershire".
Im still sure I will forever say it wrong 😑😆 Thank you so much for watching today!
@@rustichoney Ha ha ha...I still want to drag it out to the long pronunciation! 😆
Love the video. What kind of biscuits are those?
When I buy biscuits I get the frozen pillsbury grands (any style) they’re so good! So much better than any canned varieties!
👌👍
Thanks for watching!
I love your crochet top where did you buy it?
Thank you! I’ve had this trusty favorite for nearly 15 years now lol 😅 It was from the Buckle way back when 😊
