Sourdough Dinner Rolls

I love making these sourdough dinner rolls! They are like fluffy little clouds that also work as slider buns or soup dippers. We adore them! Tangy, chewy and all around delicious.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup active/bubbly sourdough starter
  • ½ cup honey
  • 1 ½ cups warm water
  • 4 ¾ cups bread flour flour
  • ½ cup Butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 large egg + 1 teaspoon water, for egg wash
  • melted butter, for brushing
  • Flaky sea salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In the bowl of your electric mixer, whisk together the starter, honey and warm water.
  2. Add in the flour, salt and melted butter. Mix until just combined, then let the dough rest for 10 minutes.
  3. After 10 minutes, turn the mixer on medium-low speed. Knead for 10 to 15 minutes, until the dough is silky, stretchy and feels soft. I also do the windowpane test here (gently pull the dough up - you want it to be translucent and see-through without ripping).
  4. Place the dough in a buttered bowl. Cover and let rise for 8 to 10 hours (or even overnight).
  5. Once the dough has risen, divide it into 12 equal pieces. Then form them into balls. Rub a 9x13 inch baking dish with softened butter. Place the balls in the dish. Cover and let rise again for 2 hours.
  6. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Brush the tops of the rolls with the egg wash.
  7. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
  8. Once they come out of the oven, brush with melted butter and top with flaky sea salt.
