Kitchen Equipment Required Mixing Bowls Rolling Pin Baking Dish (9×13 inches or 23×33 cm) Measuring Cups and Spoons Kitchen Scale Bench Scraper Pastry Brush Cooking Time Total estimated time: 14-16 hours (including fermentation time) Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls Recipe Ingredients Dough 150g (1/2 cup + 2 tbsp) active sourdough starter 240ml (1 cup) whole milk, lukewarm 100g (1/2 cup) granulated sugar 100g (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted 550g (4 1/2 cups) all-purpose flour 5g (1 tsp) fine sea salt 2 large eggs Filling 150g (3/4 cup) light brown sugar 15g (1 tbsp) ground cinnamon 100g (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened Glaze 120g (1 cup) powdered sugar 30ml (2 tbsp) whole milk 5ml (1 tsp) vanilla extract Instructions Step 1: Prepare the Dough In a large mixing bowl, combine the active sourdough starter, lukewarm milk, melted butter, and sugar. Stir until well mixed. Add the eggs and mix again until combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a rough dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it ferment at room temperature for 8-12 hours, or until it has doubled in size. Step 2: Prepare the Filling In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Set aside. Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll out the dough into a 12×18 inch (30×45 cm) rectangle. Step 3: Spread the Filling Brush the softened butter over the entire surface of the rolled-out dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly, making sure to cover all edges. Step 4: Roll and Cut the Dough Starting from the long edge of the rectangle, roll the dough tightly into a log. Using a sharp knife or a bench scraper, cut the log into 12 even pieces. Place the rolls in a greased 9×13 inch (23×33 cm) baking dish, leaving some space between each roll. Step 5: Second Rise Cover the baking dish with a towel and let the rolls rise at room temperature for 2-3 hours, or until they are puffy and have nearly doubled in size. Step 6: Bake the Rolls Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the cinnamon rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and the centers are cooked through. Let them cool slightly in the pan while you prepare the glaze. Step 7: Glaze the Rolls In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls before serving. Conclusion Congratulations! You’ve successfully crafted a batch of delightful Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls. Their tantalizing aroma, combined with the rich, buttery cinnamon filling and the sweet glaze, makes for an unforgettable treat.
