Sourdough Butter Rolls

Ingredients

  • 2 cup sourdough starter ( bubbly at room temp )
  • 2 1/2 cup lukewarm milk
  • 4 tbs sugar
  • 4 tbs. melted butter ( or margarine )
  • 1 tbs. salt
  • about 7 cups flour
  • 1 stick melted butter or margarine to drizzle over unbaked rolls.

Instructions

Combine starter, milk, melted butter ( 4 tbs ), sugar and salt. Stir in flour, 1 cup at a time until you have a soft, non sticky kneadable dough. Place dough in a buttered bowl and let stand in a warm place about 1 hour or doubled in bulk. Remove dough from bowl, knead briefly and gently on lightly floured surface and divide dough into 36 equal pieces. Shape into little buns and place each in a buttered muffin pan, cover with a towel and let rise about 40 minutes or light. Pour a little melted butter or margarine on each roll and bake 350 for 20 to 25 minutes or golden. Serve warm. May be frozen and reheated gently. Makes 36 soft rolls If you don't want rolls, recipes make 3 8" x 4" loaf pans of bread. Brush with beaten egg prior to baking, (don't drizzle with butter) bake 350 until done, about 45 to 50 minutes. If you want a sweeter dough for coffeecakes / buns just add extra sugar to the dough, perhaps 8 Tbs instead of the 4
