Buttermilk Sourdough Rolls Recipes

BUTTERMILK SOURDOUGH ROLLS

Steps:

• Refresh the sourdough starter the night before.
• Mix the buttermilk, butter, yeast and starter until blended uniformly.
• Add flour and salt and mix thoroughly, cover and let rest for 20 minutes.
• Knead for 3 to 4 minutes and stretch and fold the dough, letter style, top to bottom and side to side.
• Place in a straight sided clear container and let rise for 15 minutes.
• Stretch and fold the dough and replace in the container to rise until double in volume.
• Divide into 16 uniform pieces weighing 55 g each and shape into balls.
• Place on parchment paper and cover with oiled plastic.
• Let rise until 1 1/2 times it's original volume (I place one roll in a small straight sided glass to judge the rise).
• Apply an egg wash (1 egg white or egg and 1 tablespoon of water well mixed) and place in a 375F oven near the top of the oven.
• Bake for 8 min and rotate pan 180 degrees. Bake 8 more minutes until internal temperature is 205°F.

SOURDOUGH CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• Mix 3 cups all-purpose flour, buttermilk, sourdough starter, 2 tablespoons cubed butter, and white sugar in a glass bowl. Cover and set in a warm area until double in size, 8 to 12 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a small bowl. Add to flour mixture.
• Knead dough until it is soft but no longer sticky, adding flour as needed. Roll dough with floured rolling pin until it is 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick.
• Combine 6 tablespoons melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until it has the consistency of a paste. Spread sugar paste evenly on rolled dough.
• Roll up dough into a cylinder shape. Cut dough into 1/2-inch pieces using dental floss or a serrated knife. Arrange rolls into a cast iron skillet.
• Bake cinnamon rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes.
