Ingredients

Scale

1 cup active sourdough starter
1/2 cup warm milk
2 large eggs (room temperature)
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp salt
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup unsalted brown butter (melted)
1/2 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)

Instructions

In a bowl, mix the sourdough starter with warm milk. Add eggs and whisk until smooth.
In another bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually add to wet ingredients while stirring until a shaggy dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.
For the filling, melt brown butter and mix with sugar and cinnamon.
Roll out the dough into a rectangle, spread the filling evenly, roll tightly into a log, and slice into buns.
Place cut-side up in a greased baking dish to rise again while preheating the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown; drizzle with powdered sugar glaze before serving.
