Ingredients

  • 1 cup sourdough starter
  • 3 cups bread flour all purpose will also work
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter room temp

Instructions

  • Feed sourdough starter 4-12 hours before starting your dough. It should be nice and bubbly before mixing the ingredients together.
  • In a stand mixer with a dough hook, add active sourdough starter, bread flour, water, butter, salt, and honey. Knead for 5-10 minutes, until it pulls away from the sides of the bowl and is stretchy. It should also pass the ‘window pane’ test.
  • Place in a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap, beeswax wrap, or a tight lid. You don’t want to cover breads with just a towel, because it can leave a hard, not-so-desirable skin on the dough.
  • Allow to ferment 8-12 hours at room temperature. You can place the in the fridge after the bulk ferment if you want to wait to bake the dough.
  • Divide into 6 equal parts and shape.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece of dough out into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick. Roll it up and pinch the ends closed.
  • Place the shaped rolls onto a parchment lined baking sheet (seam side down) and allow to double in size. This can take 1-3 hours.
  • Once it has risen, preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Slash the rolls with a razor if desired.
  • Spray the tops of them with water before baking and halfway during baking time. This make for a crispy outside and soft interior.
  • Bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool, and enjoy.

Notes

  • Find directions for a faster (not long-fermented version) in the post above.
  • The sourdough starter used in this recipe should be active (very bubbly).
  • Optional: To create a crispy crust, spray the tops of them with water before baking and halfway during baking time.
