These cinnamon rolls have been in the Butler family for over 30 years using the sourdough starter that my husband's Grandmother has had active for over 40 years. I now have a starter of her sourdough and make them in my kitchen. These are delicious with a cup of my husband's locally roasted coffee-First Sip Coffee Roasters! @llaurabutlerr @firstsipcoffee.roasters
