Sourdough Muffins? First Try

1 cup sourdough starter
1 cup milk
1 cup whole-wheat flour
3 Tablespoons maple syrup

Mix together in a bowl and leave overnight.

In the morning, preheat the oven to 400, butter a 12-muffin baking tin, and cream together

3/4 cup butter
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon

and beat in

2 egg yolks.

Beat the whites separately till nearly stiff, then fold into the butter mixture along with the sourdough starter and up to

2 cups sifted flour.

Scoop into the prepared tin and bake for 20-25 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 5 more minutes and then remove the muffins to cool the rest of the way on a wire rack.


Once I've tried this I'll post again with corrections.
