While most muffins recipes call for things like butter, sugar and sour scream, I used canola oil, sugar substitutes and greek yogurt, so I feel less guilty about eating these. As with most of the population this year, my husband took up baking sourdough bread. I knew nothing about sourdough starter, and while my husband has certainly learned more about it than I, what I did learn is that you have to throw some of this stuff out every day. Every. Day.
