Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sourdough discard
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup milk (or plant-based alternative)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon (for filing)
- 1/4 cup melted butter (for filling)
- Icing (optional, for finishing)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
- Add in the sourdough discard, milk, and softened butter. Stir until a soft dough begins to form.
- Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Knead gently for about 3-5 minutes, just until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Roll the dough into a rectangle, roughly 1/4 inch thick. Brush the top with melted butter, then sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture evenly over the surface.
- Carefully roll the dough tightly from the long side, creating a log shape. Pinch the seam closed and slice the log into 12 equal pieces.
- Arrange the rolls in a greased baking dish, allowing them to touch. Cover with a clean cloth or plastic wrap and let them rise for about 30-45 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once risen, bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
- If desired, drizzle with icing after they have cooled slightly.
Enjoy these warm sourdough cinnamon rolls with a cup of your favorite coffee or tea. They’re perfect for sharing or simply savoring all by yourself!
