Sourdough Discard Cinnamon Rolls: A Delightful Way to Use Up That Extra Starter

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (plus up to 1/2 cup extra, as needed)
  • 2 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoon cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1/3 cup milk (plus more if needed)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (or more, to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoon softened unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a baking dish.

2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

3. Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients and cut it in until the mixture is crumbly.

4. Stir in the sourdough discard, milk, and vanilla extract until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour gradually.

5. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and roll it into a rectangle.

6. Spread the softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon evenly over the top.

7. Carefully roll the dough tightly into a log, then slice it into even rolls.

8. Place the rolls in the prepared baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, until they’re golden brown.

9. While the rolls are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to create a smooth glaze.

10. As soon as the rolls come out of the oven, drizzle the glaze over the top and serve them warm and gooey.

Notes

To ensure your Sourdough Discard Cinnamon Rolls turn out perfectly, here are a few tips to keep in mind:

Avoid Sticky Dough: If the dough seems too sticky, gradually add a bit more flour until it becomes easy to handle.

Importance of Cold Butter: Using cold butter is key for creating flaky, layered rolls. Don’t skip this step!

Mastering the Roll and Slice: Carefully roll the dough into a tight log, then use a sharp knife to slice it into even rolls for the best presentation.

Baking to Perfection: Keep an eye on the rolls as they bake, and adjust the time as needed to achieve that perfect golden-brown color.
