Method

  1. Preheat oven to 230C. Line a tray with baking paper.
  2. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Make a well in the centre, add sour cream and milk. (add muesli and cinnamon powder)

  • Yes! Thank you for this.
    I have leftover sour cream from when I made stroganoff the other night.
    I might not have 300ml but will improvise on the measurements.
