Season 1 of the American "MasterChef," as per sources like Hulu, Wikipedia, and the MasterChef USA Fandom page, consists of 13 episodes. However, FOX's original broadcast paired some episodes back-to-back, leading to them being listed as double episodes on their site. This broadcast strategy made it appear as if there were only 8 episodes in the season. The dual-episode format is typical for reality shows to enhance viewer engagement. Each of these 13 episodes, though, is recognized as distinct in official counts on streaming platforms and other comprehensive sources.
For detailed episode information, you can visit the MasterChef USA Fandom page.
Regardless of the original broadcast schedule, this is now causing problems with tracking on real world streaming platforms.

As per our rules, the original listing should be the one provided by the original broadcaster.
