In a large mixing bowl, sift together all purpose flour, brown sugar, salt, baking powder, ground nutmeg, and cocoa powder. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together all the wet ingredients: milk, one egg, peanut oil, sourdough starter discard, vanilla and almond extract.
Using a spoon or spatula, fold in the flour mixture and combine all of the ingredients. Next, add in the chocolate chips and mix to combine. Line a muffin tin with muffin liners or spray with nonstick spray. Divide the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups. Sprinkle the top of the muffins with chopped hazelnuts, if desired.
