Description

Make the best sourdough cinnamon rolls with this easy overnight recipe. This recipe uses your active sourdough starter to create soft, flavorful rolls.

Ingredients

  • 100g active sourdough starter
  • 250ml warm milk
  • 50g granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 50g unsalted butter, melted
  • 500g all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • For the filling:
  • 100g unsalted butter, softened
  • 150g brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • For the glaze:
  • 100g powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the active sourdough starter, warm milk, granulated sugar, egg, and melted butter. Mix well.
  2. Add the all-purpose flour and salt to the wet ingredients. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let it rest at room temperature for 1-2 hours, or until slightly puffy.
  5. Refrigerate the dough overnight (8-12 hours).
  6. The next morning, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
  7. For the filling, mix the softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl until well combined.
  8. Spread the filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border.
  9. Roll up the dough tightly, starting from one end.
  10. Cut the roll into 12 equal slices.
  11. Place the slices in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Cover and let them rise at room temperature for 2-3 hours, or until doubled in size.
  12. Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
  13. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  14. For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  15. Drizzle the glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure your sourdough starter is active and bubbly before using.
  • Adjust sugar in the filling to your preference.
  • If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
  • If you don’t have time to refrigerate overnight, you can let the dough proof at room temperature for about 4-6 hours until doubled.
