For an extra layer of flavor, try adding 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter. If you don't have walnuts, pecans or other nuts work well too. Ensure your sourdough starter is active and bubbly for the best results. To prevent the nuts from sinking to the bottom, toss them with a tablespoon of flour before adding them to the batter. This cake is even better the next day!
