- In a small bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon. Gently fold into the wet ingredients and mix until mostly incorporated – a few lumps are ok.

Notes
Storage: The muffins are best if eaten the same day, but can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge overnight. Reheat in the oven before serving.
Freezing: Freeze cooled muffins on a baking sheet before transferring to a freezer bag or container. They will keep for 3 months in an airtight bar or container.
