Sour Cream Muffins and Pomegranate Raspberry Tea Butter

Sour Cream Muffins is a sponsored post for STASH Tea. 

I love homemade bread and savory muffins. When I don’t have the time or inclination for a long, drawn-out bread-making session, I make Savory Sour Cream Muffins with Pomegranate Raspberry Tea Butter. Savory Sour Cream Muffins are so easy to make. You probably have all the ingredients on hand. I serve them warm with tea butter. If you’ve never had tea butter, you’re in for a treat.

Savory Sour Cream Muffins can be served as appetizers or in place of bread at your next dinner party. These little savory muffin bites would be a perfect accompaniment to a charcuterie board.

STASH Pomegranate Raspberry Tea is the perfect combination of tart and bold fruitiness. There’s a touch of matcha (so good for us) for an extra kick of green tea flavor. In addition to green tea, it also contains hibiscus, orange peel, chamomile, and natural raspberry flavor. I love that STASH teas are NON-GMO Verified.

Sour Cream Muffins

I always make the tea butter before baking the savory muffins. This is a really simple process.

Tea Butter

You will need 1/2 cup softened butter. Once the butter is soft enough to stir, empty one STASH Pomegranate Raspberry tea bag into a bowl.

How to Make Pomegranate Tea Butter

Add the butter and stir until well combined. Let the butter sit for a few minutes for the flavors to meld. Or, you can shape into a log, wrap with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator until firm. I like to serve it slightly softened. The tea leaves soften into the butter and add the best flavor!

The little savory muffin bites are also simple to make and they practically melt in your mouth. Don’t you just love easy recipes like this?

To make the muffins, you’ll need one cup of butter. Add two cups self-rising flour and beat until combined. Add sour cream and beat until just combined. Spoon into ungreased mini muffin tins.

Helpful Hint: If you don’t have self-rising flour on hand, you can easily make your own. Combine one cup of all-purpose flour with 1-1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. You’ll need two cups of flour for this recipe.
