Today I am back with yet another recipe that uses your sourdough starter: Sourdough Cinnamon Muffins.

These muffins are soft and airy and they taste like autumn! I make these often as my elder daughter loves them – in fact, she loves anything cinnamon. The good news is, they also freeze very well. Just wrap them in aluminum foil and pop them in the freezer. The thaw and enjoy!

They are great at breakfast, morning tea, or afternoon tea. However, I would be lying if I told you I never had them after dinner! Hahahaha

These muffins are also a great way to use up some of your sourdough starter… so, what are you waiting for?? Go to your kitchen and get cooking! You can thank me later! Maybe while enjoying one of these muffins with a hot cup of coffee or tea!
