Dough Instructions

1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine active sourdough starter, honey, water, and melted coconut oil. 

2. Use dutch whisk to mix together wet ingredients 

3. Add flour to wet mixture and mix with dough hook until smooth, glossy. 

4. Cover bowl the with plastic wrap or foil. Allow to rest in warm place overnight, or up to 12 hours. 

5. The next day, add the baking soda, baking powder, salt and eggs to the dough and mix in the stand mixer on medium speed for about 5 minutes, or knead with you hands. Combine well.

Don’t give up too soon, the eggs will take a bit of time to combine. If your stand mixer is struggling, knead with your hands. It takes quite a bit of work before your dough will feel like it’s smooth and uniform. Keep working it! 

6. In a separate bowl, combine softened butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir to combine.

7. Lightly dust the counter with flour, and roll out the dough into a 1/4 inch thick rectangle.

8. Add butter and cinnamon-sugar filling to the top of the dough and spread evenly. 

9. Roll the dough up as tightly as you can.

10. Slice using thread or unflavored floss to make 8-12 even rolls (depending on how thick you want them)

11. Place the rolls into a baking dish.

12. Pour 75 g of heavy cream to cinnamon rolls

13. Bake at 375F for 25 minutes or until the rolls are lightly browned and the dough is cooked through.

You can also put them in the fridge for up to 48 hrs to bake later. When baking from the fridge, add 5-8 min extra to baking time (bake until rolls are golden brown).

Cream Cheese Topping

1. In a large mixing bowl, mix unsalted butter and room-temperature cream cheese until combined. 

2. Add powdered sugar and heavy cream and blend until smooth. 

3. Spread on cinnamon rolls after they have cooled for a few minutes
