Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup 240g active sourdough starter (fed and bubbly)
  • ¾ cup 180g warm milk
  • ¼ cup 60g melted butter
  • 2 tablespoons honey or sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 3–3½ cups 360–420g all-purpose flour
  • teaspoons salt

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter, warm milk, melted butter, honey, and egg. Mix until smooth.
  • Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  • Knead the dough by hand or with a stand mixer for 8–10 minutes, until smooth and slightly tacky.
  • Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise at room temperature for 8–12 hours, or until doubled in size.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 8–12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a smooth ball.
  • Place rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced evenly apart. Cover loosely and let rise for 1–2 hours, until puffy.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Optional: Brush tops with egg wash for a golden finish.
  • Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Make sure your sourdough starter is active and bubbly for best results.
Dough should be soft and slightly tacky, avoid adding too much flour.
For extra soft rolls, place a small pan of water in the oven while baking to create steam.
Rolls can be frozen for up to 2 months.
