3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sourdough starter (active and bubbly)
1 cup warm water
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix the sourdough starter, warm water, and maple syrup until well combined.
Add the flour, cinnamon, and salt to the mixture and stir until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Shape the dough into a round loaf and let it rest for 30 minutes.
Carefully place the dough into the hot Dutch oven, cover it, and bake for 30 minutes.

Let the bread cool on a wire rack before slicing.
